Say I start a PHP script via command line.
Is there a way that PHP can restart/rerun the script from the top via a command inside the PHP script?
<?php
if($something == 'yes')
{
// restart/rerun whole PHP script
}
?>

Do you mean a loop? – Daan Sep 25 '19 at 12:07

Hi, no not a loop. I would like to force restart/rerun the entire script. – Mr.Boon Sep 25 '19 at 12:10

@Mr.Boon Put all these inside a function and call the function again. – nice_dev Sep 25 '19 at 12:18

As told in comment you can send header.
or if you in the middle of page, you can add <script> tag with window.location.reload() there

Hi, this is a PHP only script, no HTML/JS. Only runs via cron in commandline – Mr.Boon Sep 25 '19 at 12:14

Then advice of @Mr.Boon. Script with variable `needReload = false` then all script in function. In case of success do nothing. If you need reload then `needReload = true` and return. In main script call function again in loop if `true`. But beware of endless cycle. – DuhVir Sep 25 '19 at 12:29
