I'm not sure if this is really a php question or not? I've got an application (win32, apache, php, mysql) where users download data from a data recorder, using kermit (x/y/z modem), onto a server (preferrably not going from the data recorder to a file on the hard disk, then from the file to the upload form then into the database).
I would really like to be able to go directly from the data recorder (has to go through comm port at least for now) through a php script into the database using my php functions). Is it possible to get access to the comm port using php? Or am I stuck with all the intermediate steps which would be. 1) start the tx from the data recorder. 2) start exec() from php script from form button 3) when exec() is finished, then read the downloaded file into the mysql database... this has to be done on the server machine. is it possibleto do this from a client (browser)?
