AT seemed flaky when I tried to use it. You can use the Program Scheduler and have it open up IE with an address. The command line would be something like C:\whatever\path\iexplore.exe http://www.yourpage.com/script.php And somewhere in the config you can tell it to "End this program after X minutes". Set that at whatever and IE will shutdown after that many minutes. Seems to work well if you can't get AT working... ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
