PHP and running DOS bat files and capture console

[IchBin]

I have no problem doing this in Java. I am new to PHP. How do you,
using a PHP script, run a windows DOS.bat file and capture all of its
console for further processing?

Use the backtick operators (next to the 1 key under the ESC key) like so:

$output = `command.bat`;

it's documentation.
