Are you saying you want to copy user commands from the terminal and put them in a php frame. In other words, what ever the user types in the command line, shows up simultaneously in php? When you say php, do you mean the frame or a site?

well the user input will not be used for some website. what i am trying to achieve is that to get the input from the command line argument e.g.

./file.php 23 45 29

so that i can save these three input values in my script for their sum calculation

Have you thought about using using sed and a generic file with temp values that can be overwritten by sed, then copy the newly modified file over the original?

Try

<?php
var_dump($argv);
?>
