Seeking alternatives for Crone Jobs

jeeweb

Hi
I have a site in PHP on IIS 6 and need some sort of scheduling

functionality for sending emails via php scripts, running scripts on

database etc.

I worked a bit with Crone Jobs for this however I was wondering if there

is something better then that. Site is developed in PHP / MySQL and

running on Windows 2003 with IIS 6.

Any help!

Sorted.

Cron jobs I think would be thes best route... although you could just include a file into your sites pages which would run the updates of whatever needed to be done at set times...


This would only work though when people accessed your site or that file...
