RE: OT: How to embed or call a shell script in an html file?

Matt: I have tried everything that you suggested,
but I still can't get the code that you gave me to work.

It is. I have other .php programs on my web host's server that work fine.

I have done that.

I have done that.

I have done that, but I get this error message:

"[an error occurred while processing this directive]"

No other details or info.

Yet I do have other .php programs running and working
fine on this web server, here is one:

http://www.BestCleanFun.com
same as: http://www.upquick.com/bestfun/
same as: http://vsiq.com/upquick/bestfun/
same as: /home6/vsiqcom/www/upquick/bestfun

I don't know where to find that libphp.so

Yes, I do that also.
