I need pass data (in this case just a single id) to a custom dll using php. Can you work directly with a dll in php? Having never worked with a dll before I’m not really sure how it works. Is it similar in nature to a web service or rpc?

Since this is a custom DLL, perhaps you’d consider making a PHP extension?
Alternatively, PHP supports COM. If you can make a COM DLL, you’re in good shape: http://us.php.net/COM
Finally, is it something that can be used with rundll32? If so, you could call it with
exec().
