You need to use the CLI version of PHP instead of the CGI version. It
should either have a different name (such as php-cli.exe) or be in the
cli directory. If you don't have this, you'll need to upgrade to a
version that does (4.3.0+). See
<http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.comman dline.php> for more

Hi,

I am using the .exe version of PHP and running stand alone on windows 2k ...
most stuff works great but I can't read arguments off the command line. I
found some references showing it working in the normal C way but I assume
they referred to PHP in a Unix environment or maybe I need some includes.

Anyone crack this nut?
