This is not something that should happen when a page is viewed, it is someting that should happen at a certain point in time. So it looks like a cronjob should do the trick. Create a script that sents emails for all expired products, and create a cron-job that runs this script daily (or more often if you wish) TiNo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
