Any idea on how to create a cron on a third party web server?
The goal is to allow me to send weekly emails to subscribers.
Or is there a PHP way to code the functionality into the website?
One way I can think of right now is to have a webpage with javascript that will refresh weekly, calling the email_subscribers function.
But that doesn't feel right somehow.
How does free forum boards handle subscriptions via daily/weekly emails?

Re: Creating cron on third party server
Do you have shell access to the server or only FTP access? Have you checked the Control Panel to see of you can schedule scripts to run?
