hi!
I was wondering if there was any way of getting a script to run every midnight?
possibly through some zymic service?

(Possibly) usefull info:
I have Windows Vista
I have a web site hosted with zymic... duh...

thanks for any help laugh.gif

What will the script be doing?

Jacob.
dylthedude
it will be removing some text from an html file.

I have 4 chat rooms on my site, and would like to remove all messages from them every midnight...
Jacob
Chat rooms/Chat scripts are not allowed on Zymic Hosting. You are currently violating the TOS. I would recommending your systems immediately.

dylthedude
oh, really? sorry!

well I havent made them yet, so I guess I woun't then...

again, sorry!!!!

ps. it would still be usefull to know if this is possible (as I might have to move to a new hosting site, and have the chat rooms there...)
Jacob
Of course. Anything is possible using a PHP and some MySQL. wink.gif

Most paid hosting allow you to use cronjobs, setting one to run a cleanup script would make this possible.

Would a website that has this (below) be counted as a "chat room"?

-Iframe with TXT document
-TextArea for "Insert"
-Button (Submit)

Code (in english):
button on click add text from textarea to the TXT document then reload page?

Thanks

No, they are still not allowed as long as the service is on our servers.
