my host only lets me run crons at the minimum time of a once hour is there a way to say run a query once every 5 Min's in a loop and put that inside my hour cron

or

can someone suggest an alternative other than .... Look up the time function or read a manual

if you were going put that and not expand on it, i would rather you didn't post

Re: cron

There isn't really anything you can reliably do to replace a cron daemon with something else if you're not willing to "looking the time function" errr, umm, I would have said you should use timestamps...

You could have windows schedualer setup to activate your browser which then loads a script on your site at specified intervals, but it's a pain, and very unreliable....

I think you should RTFM lol (I jest of course)

I'm willing to look but can someone push me in the direction e.g. examples

because looking in the Manual i cant get much out of it from timestamp other than showing the time.
