@teresaejunior Yes, you are right. I didn't mention this but I'm already using AJAX on the script. I skipped mentioning AJAX because the real functionality is coming from the interaction between PHP and the shell. AJAX is only enhancing a user's experience by not refreshing the page.

Thanks for the link to that script. The ones I tried before couldn't handle user interaction. This one says it has "the possibility to execute commands that needs user interaction" so let me try it out and let you know how it goes.

Thanks a lot Smilie

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename] DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS. The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed. OPTIONS
The following option is supported: -a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it. NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |CSI |Enabled | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
