[PHP] schedule a task

2001-11-19 Thread Gab
Hi, I have a form (POST method), that creates a back-up of a MySQL database as an SQL file when submited. I am looking for a way to automate this task (ie on a daily basis at midnight). Any idea on how to do it in PHP? (if it is possible) Thanks Gab -- PHP General Mailing List
