Free task scheduler component script

Now using phpJobScheduler you can easily set times when a PHP script should run; automating tedious tasks such as running backups (use with phpMySQLAutoBackup for a complete MySQL automated backup solution), trimming a database table, or emailing a member when their membership fee is due.

Schedule a task to run hourly, daily or weekly - scheduled data is stored in a MySQL database via PHP. phpJobScheduler will fire any PHP script (or perl script) for you at the correct day/time (dependant upon your traffic to your web site).

Limiting factor: hits to site per hour/day. If you wish to add a scheduled job per hour your site must receive sufficient traffic within that time period. Each time a page with the relevant PHP code is visited the phpJobScheduler will check for any jobs waiting to be run at that time.
Therefore, so long as your site receives hits every single hour you can set a schedule to run hourly and you can be sure the task will be fired.
