Hi all,

Does anyone know how I can set up a script that at 12am goes into a DB and makes changes? The purpose is to have a daily image. I'd want this to happen on it's own without having a user hit the page. I hope this makes sense.

Thanks in advance!

I found the answer! I've never heard of Cron before now. My host was set up for it so it's an easy process.

Plus you can still use CCS. Just run your CCS created PHP from cron.
Some ways to do it mentioned here:

Yep, I still used CCS to make the page cron calls. Works great!

I love CodeCharge... :-D
