Here are some notes -- there are a couple problems with your code:
15 19 * * * curl -dump http://www.firstdomain.com/files/filename.phtml >
http://www.seconddomain.com/home/rommys/seconddomain-www/files/file'date
+"%m%d%y"'.txt

1. Not sure about "curl" -- never used it, but it appears you can use a
URL
2. The embedded date command needs to be quoted with the <b>back-tick</b>, not
the single quote:  `date +"%m%d%y"`  not 'date +"%m%d%y"'
3. You need to give a real unix path name for the redirection, not a url:
someunixcommand > /unix/path/finename
4. Everything needs to be on one line, no line-feeds or carriage returns.

So it should look like this (without the line breaks):
15 19 * * * curl -dump http://www.firstdomain.com/files/filename.phtml >
/path/file`date +"%m%d%y"`.txt

I'm assuming you have access to that Unix server since you're using cron,
and that you just want to store the files on that same server.

Also, try the command on the command-line to make sure it works...

Let me know how it goes --
