Data About ping command

Hi!

I have small problem. I want to ping a server and the result shouldn't be printed in the browser window, just become a value.

Here you can see the script that I have:

$command="ping linux.com -t ttl -c1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $4 \" \" $5}'";
$output = system($command);
system("exit(0)");
echo "DATA: $output";
?>

When I run this in my browser the resualt will be as follow:

33.1/33.1/33.1 ms DATA: 33.1/33.1/33.1 ms

The echo value is just a test for me to see if the $output value is OK.

What I want is that the value before DATA: 33.1/33.1/33.1 ms
shouldn't be viewed in the browser just DATA: 33.1/33.1/33.1 ms

Could someone please help me with this problem?

Best Regards

Peter Håkansson

hman(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   hman(1)

NAME
hman - browse the on-line manual pages SYNOPSIS
hman [ -P browser ] [ -H host ] [ section ] name hman [ -P browser ] [ -H host ] [ section ] [ index ] DESCRIPTION
The hman script is an interface to man2html(1) that allows you to enter man page requests at the command line and view the output in your favourite browser. The behaviour reminds of that of man(1) so that many people will be able to alias hman to man. If the browser used is netscape, and an incarnation of netscape is running already, hman will pass the request to the existing browser. OPTIONS
-P browser Specify which browser (like lynx, xmosaic, arena, chimera, netscape, amaya, ...) to use. This option overrides the MANHTMLPAGER environment variable. The default is the non-httpd version of lynx, or sensible-browser if lynx cannot be found. -H host Specify from what host to get the man pages. This option overrides the MANHTMLHOST environment variable. The default is localhost. ENVIRONMENT
MANHTMLPAGER The default browser to use is selected using this environment variable. MANHTMLHOST The default host to use is selected using this environment variable. SEE ALSO
man(1), man2html(1), arena(1), lynx(1), sensible-browser(1), netscape(1), xmosaic(1), glimpse(1) http://www.mcom.com/newsref/std/x-remote.html 19 January 1998 hman(1)
