Hi,

I couldnt figure out which forum to place this in, so I chose this as being the best bet. (If this is the wrong area, please place it in a more appropriate one...)

The question is basically this: What ways are there, other than PHP, to run a file on a remote server? As of now I'm using a PHP form that runs a file when it is submitted. (And even better- a way to run a file and not need the page to refresh before it can run it [or another file] again.)

Another question thats been bothering me: With Voice Over IP the stream is pretty much realtime and no apparent delays can be heard (or very little); Is there a way to have this same style of communication for another purpose? Right now I have a script that moves a webcam but there are delays before each action is implemented... I was thinking that if it could be done in a similar fashion as VoIP then it would be almost instant response... If anyone knows anything about this, I'd greatly appreciate any comments.

Thanks,
Larry
