Question

I have been trying to do this:

$handle = popen('php -q nah.php?part='. $part . ' 2>&1', 'r');
while (!feof($handle))
{
    $read = fread($handle, 2096);
    echo $read;
}
pclose($handle);

What i want to do is i want to pass some values to the file nah.php but When i try it this way i get an error this :

Could not open input file: nah.php?part=say:

How can i do this ?

And yea i am using all this php-cli

Used in command-line, PHP doesn’t take GET arguments but command-line arguments, for example:

php -q nah.php -p='name of part'

You can then get the value of these arguments using getopt():

$options = getopt("p:");
$part = $options["p"];
