I have google the heck out of this an I cannot get an answer to this. I hate php, but out php guy is too busy and I need HELP!
I want to call a perl script from an html button. But, I just want it to run in the back ground, I don't need to display anything from it... Would something like this work?
<html>
<body>
<p>
<button onclick=<?php exec('test.pl') ?>Run Perl</button>
</p>
</body>
I would prefer not to use cgi, I want to keep this as simple as possible.
Thanks

That will not works, you have to create an action for that:
<?php
if (isset($_POST['button']))
{
exec('test.pl');
}
?>
<html>
<body>
<form method="post">
<p>
<button name="button">Run Perl</button>
</p>
</form>
</body>
