There may be a much easier method however why not write a file and then check for it's
existence on the next execution. Delete the file at the end of
execution to clear the way for the next pass.
Quick and dirty so probably at least on typo
<?
$pidFile = "path/to/file/filename";
if (!is_file ($pidFile)) {
touch ($pidFile);
// code to execute
unlink ($pidFile);
}
?>
