to be implemented forking in php. http://lab46.g7n.org/~creid4/php/project.html *Update* the above link no longer is relevant as the php function only works within a terminal. due to this technical difficulty the project has been submitted server side.
Explenation: the php file runes then splits using the pcntl_fork() function to chreat a child from the process. Then the two processes print if they are a parent or child. This demonstrates a concept I was learning in my systems class and thought it was neat that php was capable of the same thing.
