I was just playing around with PHP-GTK, and ran into an issue. I set up my window with a button box and a set of buttons within said box. One of those buttons runs the function 'term.' This is term():

Code:

 function term()

 {

  global $window;

  $window->hide_all();

  system("xterm &");

  gtk::main_quit();

 }

For some reason, though, the xterm is called before the GTK window is hidden, and the hide is called right after I close the xterm, immediately followed by the quit.

Why isn't the xterm being called before the hide/quit?

Edit: Whoops, forgot to show you how the button/function relationship is set up. Looks like this:

Code:

 $term  = &new GtkButton('Term');  

 $term->  connect('released','term');

I get the same results when using 'clicked' or 'pressed.'
