let me rephrase the question - is there a particular

set the appropriate CGI environment up, and then run it seamlessly?
At any point you could snarf data from $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIES, and
$_SERVER and store it for later use.
Or is there going to be extra-environment information
that I'm going
to have to acquire (and massage) in order to make this work? I'm
primarily thinking cookies here..
A login session will store some information using PHP's session support,
which is keyed by a cookie. By default, PHP stores session data in
temporary files. See
http://www.php.net/session
I'll give it a whirl, but I'm skeptical. I just
tried it, got a '>'
as a prompt, hit one question mark (to get help) and it seemed to spawn
an infinite loop of '>' prompts.
"?" is not a valid PHP statement.
of course, but I would think that the appropriate response would be
to emit a syntax error, not an infinite loop of '>'s . This just leads
me to think that it might be not the most 'well-traveled' debugging
environment.
You mean like this?
brion@rdaneel:/var/www/head/maintenance $ php eval.php
?
Parse error: parse error, unexpected '?' in
/var/www/head/maintenance/eval.php(24) : eval()'d code on line 1
