need help in php scripting

I have to develop a page which has a form like this.

It has one select box to select a value from the set of values. It has two buttons. If u click on any of these buttons it had to call a shell script and the selected value should be sent to that shell script.
If i click on another button it has to call another shell script and the selected value should be sent to that shell script..

please mail me the solution

my id is sduggire@csee.usf.edu or dsridhar10@yahoo.co.in

Thanks,
Sridhar!

If you'd of asked this in the PHP forum, you'd probably already have an answer. This should work... untested, of course:

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php



if(isset($_REQUEST['submit1']) || isset($_REQUEST['submit2']))

{

  if(isset($_REQUEST['argument']))

  {

    $arg = escapeshellarg($_REQUEST['argument']);

    if(isset($_REQUEST['submit1']))

    { $shell_script = 'xx1'; }

    else

    { $shell_script = 'xx2'; }



    $last_line = exec("$shell_script $arg",$result,$return_code);

  }

}

?>

<html>

  <body>

  <form method="POST" action="thispage.php">

    <select name="argument">

      <option value="arg1">arg1</option>

      <option value="arg2">arg2</option>

      <option value="arg3">arg3</option>

    </select>

    <input type="submit" name="submit1" value="Run Program 1">

    <input type="submit" name="submit2" value="Run Program 2">

  </form>

  </body>

</html>
