whois problem with dutch registry ( 5 Views )

1. For unlimited requests the dutch registry requires us to connect to their whois db with the following command:
   
   whois -h whois.domain-registry.nl 'is domain.nl'
   
   (we have to use the 'is' command)
   
   Now I want to use php to do this, but I don't want the output directly to the browser, I want to store it in a string and filter it.
   
   How can I do this?
   
   If I use system or passthru then the result is stored to the browser no matter what I try.
   
   Any ideas?

   Thanks Gaheris, I just stumbled upon the shell_exec function myself :)
