php shell_exec

Hey thanks for the replies guys, i've worked on it some more and have figured out a way around the 'change directory' problem by recording the working directory it currently is in and changing the directory at the start of each script so its in the correct one 
However currently there are two problems (so far i can work out).
1. The php script doesn't get the errors when the command isn't put in correctly
2. Currently unable to do 'multi-line' tasks.

The whole idea of this script was to get around the need for SSH. As i am currently hosted with JustHost, and if i can get this working fully i shan't have to pay extra for SSH access . I will of course implement security if i put it online (thats no problem for me) i am just unfamiliar with shell_exec and haven't been able to find more extensive documentation on it.
