sebastien.willemijns

hello,

i use a small PHP script to grab DNS infos at http://80.247.230.136/bug/php/

the trouble is the last line of every output given by "system"
function is always displayed twice, is it really a bug ?

No, it's a feature. system() displays (part of) the output of the command
*and* returns the output of the command.

Try "system(foo);" instead of "echo system(foo);". And, as always, RTFM.

Cheers,

More like a bug in the system program you're using... Check that
first, and then get back to us.
