Hello all, I've got several questions and i'm hoping i can find answers or links to places which contain the answers. 1. How can i set a script to run at a certain time? For example, say i want to send a mass e-mail at 5:00pm every night which contains the latest updates to the website. I know how to generate the mail and then send it to everyone's e-mail in a MySQL table. But how do i set it to run automaticaly? Answers for both Linux and Windows systems would be nice... 2. How do i open a HTML file, extract all the text and then break up the text into variables.. For example, i've got a HTML files which all have the same structure
