use the scheduled task tool in the control panel. This tool will fire off a HTTP request to the page within your site.

Thanks, but not quite what I was looking for. From your suggestion I could potentially have a scheduled tasks running many times over the course of a day just to execite one task.

Rather, Iwas looking to implement amore "event driven" model. Ideally I was looking for a way to createa scheduled task using the API (ie set the time, start, stop) rather than manually having to use the control panel. I figured the API was an alternative tomanually administering functions via the CP.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

OK. No problem. Do you think it may be something to consider in the future?

Thanks
