automating a script
Posted: Sun Dec 06, 2009 8:28 am
hey all, i needed some data and i confess that i wrote a script to scrape it from a source. I know that is never reliable and likely there must be better ways...but the data is something that rarely changes and changing the script should not be too difficult. The core of my question (as a front end guy gone rogue): can someone point me in the correct direction to learn about how i can automate this script to scrape maybe once a month? i believe this is a "cron" but i wanted to make sure
