Well you'd have to work with inputs, etc... for the key... but the look
isn't hard
$loop=1;
$sleep=300;
while ( $loop == 1 ) {
code();
sleep($sleep);
if ( %%keypresscode%% ) {
$loop = 0;
}
}
I'd probably just touch a file somewhere when I want it to stop.. and
make it if (is_file($file)) { $loop=0; }
That's my opinion

I've written a script that checks my email. However, when I run the
script
(from the command line) -- I want it to loop with a 5 minute delay and
the
ability to stop the program anytime by pressing a key on the keyboard
(say)
the ~ key.
Anyone know how to do this?
<?
function check_mail()
{
// my email code is here
}
check_mail();
?>
thanks.
