Hi
First get your PHP script working correctly...;-)
The use crontab to run lynx (as a browser that runs the PHP script for you).
Here's an example crontab line (works for me) that even gets lynx to
handle an .htaccess protected_dir ;-):
5 5 * * * /usr/local/bin/lynx -dump -nolog -auth=userid:passwd
httpd://mydomain.com/protected_dir//myphpscript.php > /dev/null
Hope that helps,
Tom Henry
