Creating cron on third party server
Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2008 12:03 am
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?
