[thelist] php timer

[Carlos Costa Portela]

	You can do that in php, of course, if you have php installed so
you can run it from command line. Use cron to get what you want. Something
like this (crontab entry):

30 15 * * * /usr/local/bin/php myscript.php

where myscript.php is your php script, and /usr/local/bin is the path to
your php executable. The script will be executed at 15:30 everyday

	Hope this helps,
		Carlos.
