Have you already tried the various solutions from this post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/554760/php-standard-input ? — csabinho, Aug 09 '16 at 00:27
You haven't included a linebreak in the output. Are you sure the `%` character is not part of your shell's command prompt? — Nisse Engström, Aug 12 '16 at 06:35

Some shell interpreters (for example ZSH) adds "%" and newline at end of subprocess output to distinguish between output of process and input prompt of shell.

Add a newline to your ouput:

echo $str, "\n";
