Not Sure.....

I run a small game server, and with this server there are numerous scripts that do different things to or for the server. I want to be able to allow my admin staff to be able to run some of these scripts, while not giving them access to an actual command line. If you could do something similar to what was posted before with a menu similar to :

1. Execute Script A
2. Execute Script B

(Q)uit

Where if the person presses 1, it would ask if you were sure to execute, then if you select yes, executes the script. "Q" would cause the person to quit.

Alternatively if there was a way I could add buttons to my password protected admin website that would execute the scripts via a web based system that would work also.

That's not hard...

1. form.html :

PHP Code:



<form action="script.php" method="POST"> 
    <input type="submit" name="ScriptA" value="Click to start script A"> 
    <input type="submit" name="ScriptB" value="Click to start script B"> 
</form>

2. script.php :

PHP Code:



<?php 
// set the path to scripts here 
$scriptA = "/path/to/scriptA"; 
$scriptB = "/path/to/scriptB"; 
 
if(isset($_POST["ScriptA"])) { 
    $output=shell_exec($scriptA); 
 
} elseif(isset($_POST["ScriptB"])) { 
    $output=shell_exec($scriptB); 
 
} else { 
    $output = "Error, no script variable set"; 
} 
 
echo "<pre>$output</pre>"; 
?>

Save both files in a directory and browse to form.html
