Use Ajax to execute server-side PHP script

Asked by marcparillo in Asynchronous Javascript and XML (AJAX), PHP Scripting Language, JScript

Tags: PHP Ajax

Is it possible to use Ajax to call a PHP script that uses the exec() command to run some server-side command and then wait for the exec() command to finish processing before sending the result back to the Ajax/JavaScript function?

I'm using this in connection with ffmpeg to create video files.

The trouble I'm having is that the exec command for ffmpeg could take up to 15-30 seconds to finish. I've tried using a synchronous ajax call but it's not working correctly... so I guess I need to know if it's even possible and then maybe get an example.

Thanks,
