[..]I am trying to call a perl script from php (with shell_exec) and pass a variable to the perl file I need to get the value of a variable from a PHP script, and put it into my perl script Does anyone know how I do this?
Since you are going to invoke the perl code with a shell exec, why not pass it as a command line option:
"myPerlCode $variable"
and have your perlcode pick it up from @ARGV the old fashion way???
You might want to look at formalizing that approach with say Getopt::Long on the perl side so that you can simplify your interface ...
