PHP Running Exec() Windows Program Very Slow In Comparison To UNIX Equivalent Program

Sessions? External Program / External Program
I am trying ac ouple of days now to learn some things on SESSIONS,but I think I am not getting it very clearly. I have a PHP page tha contains a form.

Users enter data in the form, which are then written in a file (the file is created at the time a user enters some data) The file is then given as an input to an external program The external program runs and gives some results which are then stored in another file (that is created when the external program finishes) What I want to do is to somehow create these files and, when the user exits from the browser, then both files that refer to this user, will be deleted.

PHP Not Executing, IIS 6
I'm attempting to run PHP on Microsoft IIS 6.0, and the PHP will
not execute.

For Example:

test.php:

<?
phpinfo();
?>

When I request http://localhost/test.php I get a blank page.
When I view the source, I get:

<?
phpinfo();
?>

Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Any resources that could guide me
through the install process? The .php extensions are setup correctly

Executing A Query

however both comic_pages and artwork_picture contains an 'uid' field, and I need both uids. I've made up this function, but I think it's kinda hacky (and slow, taking over 6x the speed of a normal mysqli_fetch_assoc in this case) PHP Code:

function db_multi_fetch_assoc ($result){

    for ($x = 0;@mysqli_field_seek($result,$x);$x++){

Executing From A Database
Store content (html and php) in a database, so far this hasn't been an issue. When I called the content from the database its displayed properly with the exception of php commands (specifically include() ).

Rather then executing the include statement its printed as HTML in the source code of the document. I found one post on a PHP User Group board but the solutions provided don't seem to really work.

I'm almost guessing that this is a security feature and although I'd prefer not to circumvent it, it would greatly help in what I'm trying to accomplish.

Executing Function At A Later Time
I'm making a game sort of thing in PHP and I was wondering if there was a way in PHP that I can pause the execution of a function after x seconds. I don't want the whole script to stop working though, so for example

// function 1

(pauses for 10 seconds) {
// function 2
}

// function 3

i want the script to execute like normal, but pause for 10 seconds before executing function 2, so it would execute function 1 and function 3 then 10 seconds later, execute function 2

this is exactly like the fork() statement found in MOO programming

i want to execute this on my server, using something like

so I uploaded the .cpp instead, and now i'm trying to compile it doing
