You can set up the task manager to run a php script from the command line:
php -q script.php > log.txt The '-q' switch suppresses the HTTP header output, so if you scheduled the script to run with the output redirected to a file, then all echoes etc. in the script would be redirected to the log and you won't have to mess with the web header stuff. Oh, and make sure that the PHP subdirectory is included in the PATH. You can set this manually for testing by: path=%path%;C:\PHP Best regards, Jeremy Reed "George Loch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 001101c189a9$8eaa7a60$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:001101c189a9$8eaa7a60$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > What if you are on win2K? > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Jonathan Hilgeman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 12:22 PM > Subject: [mysql-support] RE: [PHP-DB] Run php page automatically > > > > I usually just create a cron job for this.
