Well, it maybe posibble... but how can be it done by a php script?

I mean:

- The job is to send a mail to the mail-list of my web every monday, but I
cannot use the crontab

I think I can do this script:

- At every visit at my index page, I check the system date, and if it is
equal to 0:00am of monday, send the mail, and maybe, set a variable = 1 (1
means Send, for example), so the next visit won't active the script that
sends the email...

But if there are 2 simultaneos visits at 0:00am or mayor, the php will
execute 2 times the script...

so... is there a good script as efective as a cron job?

Thanks :)

PD: yes, my english sux XD
