Hello friends!

How are you? I've been gone a long time... but here I am again... lol

 

Now moving on to the topic!

I'm trying to create a shortcut to run a php script on windows!

I'm doing like this :

right click > new > shortcut

and then write something like this

cmd.exe /k php E:\Backlinks\link.php

Then trying to run the shortcut:
the script is not executed!

any ideas or thoughts?

easiest way is to make a bat file, then put shortcut to that.

In my case, i have to link to the path of the php-cgi exe file

which is:

C:\Program Files\phpDesigner 2008\PHP\php-cgi.exe c:\php\helloworld.php

and it works that way... if i remembered more about the path commands
i could probably get it to behave like linux where i can just type php anywhere
and it work...

but if you make a shortcut to the php exe it will work that way too, or the
batch file that links out like my example above.

Thanks bros!

I've managed to setup a bat file like nop suggested 

It looks like this

Code:

@echo off
ECHO Link Checker
CD E:\Backlinks\
php link.php

When I've runned for the first time all was ok ... but now when I run it ... the cmd window closes instantly and I can't see the results!

any ideas?

any advice is appreciated as always

you could go a

Code:

echo press ctrl-z when done viewing.
copy con waste.txt

or

test.bat > results.txt

if you wanted to take it deeper, you could get into it like this and test variables, etc:

Code:

ECHO OFF
CLS
:TOP
ECHO ...............................................
ECHO PRESS 1 or 2 then press enter
ECHO ...............................................
ECHO.
SET /P M=Type 1 or 2 and then press enter
IF %M%==1 GOTO ONE
IF %M%==2 GOTO TWO
ECHO %M% was not a good thing to type. try again.
GOTO TOP
:ONE
ECHO ONE
GOTO DONE
:TWO
ECHO TWO
:DONE
ECHO %M% was a good thing to type.

you could go a

Code:

echo press ctrl-z when done viewing.
copy con waste.txt

or

test.bat > results.txt

call test.bat > results.txt

works perfectly!
