not sure what CGA is, are you sure they didnt' mean/say CGI?

CGI is usually a perl script, but it can be other languages too

does your teacher need you to do it in a certain language? or is this something you are doing on your own?

You say you have a shell script you and one of your teachers want to rewrite using PHP.
You ask for help.
I think the first thing you must do is post your shell script to see if it can be rewritten in PHP as a CGI (and not -- probably! -- as a CGA).

Get your teacher to live up to his job title and teach you!

I'm disappointed. I was hoping someone actually had a CGA card. I was wondering what the computer specs were, since the CGA adapter was the first color graphics adapter. It's rez was 320x200 with 16 colors. It was ISA bus which was still available in some 500Mhz machines. Totally do-able with Linux.

What the frak, person of indeterminite gender? "CGA" is a graphics card. "CGI" is a network technology (sort of).

Considering the vague nature of your post, here's some help.

1. Learn correct English spelling and grammar ; it helps people to understand what you're on about.

2. Use the correct names and terms for things ; it helps people to understand what you're on about.

3. Search online for Vikram Waswani's "How to Do Everything with PHP and MySQL" as a PDF ; it will teach you what it promises to. If you can't find it, email me : nigel.nq.ngw[at]gmail[dot]com

4. Go get "Beginning PERL" by Simon Cozens from perl.org/books/beginning-perl ; it will teach you the Practical Extraction and Report Language and how to implement a CGI (Common Gateway Interface) script in PERL.

5. Figure out if you can implement your shell script as a CGI.

I hope that helps you.

Fatook : Go get XAMPP for GNU-Linux from apachefriends <apachefriends[dot]org+en+xampp-linux.html> and follow the installation instructions. It's a self-extractor that you need to run as the root user. It installs to /opt/lampp (/opt must exist before-hand.) Read the books I mentioned in my previous post.

That should help you to at least partly solve your problem.
