How to call another PHP script from a PHP script?

I want to run all the PHP scripts in a directory using PHP. Here's what I have:

foreach(glob('*.php') as $file)
  // Run $file

It's very well possible this is a very wrong solution to a different problem. — Arend

Look at exec. You could do something like this:

exec('/usr/bin/php ' . $file);

assuming a POSIX system of course.

always have to assume a lot of things, no one writes there questions with all the details.

It wasn't a critique of the answer. Merely letting anyone reading the answer know.
