title: Calling client side application using server side language PHP
body: <p>I am trying to create an application for client side that can be called by php and terminates certain program when it executes. I tried developing an exe file for this but I can't call the exe file via php on client side. Is there any other format of application I can develop that can be called by php? Can I develop a windows service and call it via php instead? I can ask users to download and install anything. However I cannot use javascript to achieve this.</p>
