Is there a way to catch 'Ctrl-C' in a PHP CLI script running in Windows? PCNTL isn't available for Windows so I can't easily use it to catch the signal for it. Google only turns up one post on php.net where a guy made a custom build of PHP to include PCTNL and that won't work for my situation.

Thanks for the pointers sirs, now I have another annoyance.

The more questions they answer, the more likely it is that a question they've already answered will come up. If I store which q_ids they do in a string inside a cookie or session, is it possible with a simple query to do a

SELECT * FROM questions WHERE q_id != $IN_THIS_ARRAY() ORDER BY rand( ) LIMIT 1

Or something similar?

code:

SELECT * FROM questions WHERE q_id NOT IN (x, y, z) ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1;

Use implode() to turn your array into a comma separated list which I represented above with 'x, y, z'.
