    command-line PHP problem

    I am trying to simply pipe in 2 very small commands and not have to
    create a PHP script to do this:

    php -r >>END; require_once('/var/www/html/tools/functions.inc.p hp');
    echo
    xml_to_tcl_list (file_get_conte nts('/var/www/html/tools/app/xml/data.xml'));
    END
    However, I do not have the "-r" option in PHP 4.3.9, and I would think
    that I would, but why not? Here is all I have to work with:

    php -h
    Usage: php [-q] [-h] [-s] [-v] [-i] [-f <file>]
    php <file[args...]
    -a Run interactively
    -C Do not chdir to the script's directory
    -c <path>|<fileLoo k for php.ini file in this directory
    -n No php.ini file will be used
    -d foo[=bar] Define INI entry foo with value 'bar'
    -e Generate extended information for debugger/profiler
    -f <file Parse <file>. Implies `-q'
    -h This help
    -i PHP information
    -l Syntax check only (lint)
    -m Show compiled in modules
    -q Quiet-mode. Suppress HTTP Header output.
    -s Display colour syntax highlighted source.
    -v Version number
    -w Display source with stripped comments and
    whitespace.
    -z <file Load Zend extension <file>.
    [phillip@www2 ~]$ php "phpinfo()"
    Status: 404
    Content-type: text/html
    X-Powered-By: PHP/4.3.9

    No input file specified.
    What should I do?

    Thanx
    Phil

              Re: command-line PHP problem

              You might be running a php compiled in CGI SAPI mode. Is there another
              php on your system that you might be able to use? For example,
              /usr/bin/php might be the CGI version, and /usr/local/bin/php might be
              the CLI one.

              In any case, you can still use your CGI mode php if you write the
              commands into PHP's stdin:

              echo '<? phpinfo() ?>' | php

                  Sorry apparently there is only /usr/local/bin/php and that does not
                  offer the -r option; how can I tell it is in CGI SAPI mode?
