It should be just as easy to code something into the page if ('true' == $_GET['clear_cache_now']) { ... } That would do it, then fetch the page with that url parameter. It does not have to be cron'd from that server locally, you could do it from any system that can connect, any system on the internet if it is a public site. I am not 100% sure, but there should be a windows version of curl, or something similar, that you could combine with the scheduler service to do something similar in windows. Worst case, curl does work from a cygwin environment. Jason P.S. I have something similar, in that I use cron'd scripts to override the cache feature and "freshen" the content periodically, so that my script has to endure the db query time, not some poor unsuspecting user :) >>>> And the option for those that need the performance of turning this off and running something via crontab. The problem is that we need to have something built into Smarty for those users that don't have crontab access (I don't on all my servers) so they can still use the cache without having to FTP in once a week and delete the cache. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
