how do you get ur code there do you add that in the file name after the cronjob.php?

I have a strong feeling that sqweebs.com will simply not run cronjobs, several posts on their forums of cronjobs not running.

And no real surprise as it is a free webhost.

your cronjobs code is the same code you will find in your config.php file.

LOL....

now i have givin him the knowledge that there is an alternative to cron jobs...thats the point of my 2cents...

if he searches the forums im sure he will find it...its not like hes gotta go on a wild google search..lol

no one told me about this i had to find it myself.....

if you wanna share it with him be my guest...i just figured he would learn more if he found it his self...

PS. I am a nice guy :D

There is a alliterative to crons if you host dont supply crons you can use time stamps and also cronless crons , dont really have time to explain it but search the forums and you will find topics about it
