Bat into php!

[odinthorfreja]

Hi everyone!

First of all im new to this forum and also new regarding bat/php things , so i hope someone here can be at help. Im trying to help out other people with easy install of a hardware defined key to their pc.

what i got is this in a bat file:

@echo Date: %DATE% Time: %TIME% User: %USERNAME% Hostname: %COMPUTERNAME% OS: %OS% CPU: %Processor_Identifier% CPU Arch: %Processor_Architecture% Cores: %Number_Of_Processors% CPU Rev: %Processor_Revision% CPU Level: %Processor_Level% Key: %RANDOM%%RANDOM%%RANDOM%%RANDOM%%RANDOM%%RANDOM%%RANDOM%%RANDOM% >>myhardwarekey

i need this integrated into a php page with a button so when they press the button they download the hardware made key to a specific folder or a user defined folder.
Example:

C:/program files/my program

i found this on the internet:

<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
echo exec('start.bat');
echo "Done!";
} else {
// display the form
?>
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="DO IT!">
</form>
<?php
}
?>

if thats of any kind of help?

The "exec" in the sample script you posted will execute on the server, not the customer's machine. I don't know exactly what you are trying to do, but if you have a limited understanding of php, you might be better off looking for a program already written to handle downloads.

i just found out about that yesterday

what i need it to do is to execute the bat file or maybe a php script, so it takes hardware info from the client pc and saves this into a key (fil) on the client pc, this prefered also with userdefined option on where to save the key. I have looked about everywhere for a solution for this but without any luck (actually used 6+ hours on it yesterday) , thats why im asking in this forum since many of you are pro´s regarding issues like this

Won't happen with PHP (unless the user has PHP installed in their machine and runs your script themselves). Try Java or some other client application language.
