sorry I posted that in a rush.

Basically I was wondering if there was away to automatically make something happen at set time with out anyone loging in or accessing the site. Basically at x point in time. Something always happened.

I know how to email a user and so on, I done it loads times in an email form and the layout would be simple.

I just wondered if I could get this to happen with out anyone doing anything. Then it would go do action because its x point in time.

I wondered if there was away to do this.
