Ooops, and lets not forget this one:
curl http://www.yoursite.com/path/to/script/yourscript.php
you can put that in your cron job by going to cpanel.... its a long way
round but sometimes it can be useful....you should have CURL
installed of
course.
The good thing about the above is it does not matter where the heck
your php
is installed or if you have the "shebang" or not...
HTH again.

Thanks Ryan, but that failed to work as well.
Are you getting errors emailed to you? What are they? If you're not,
make sure you set the email address appropriately and then let us know
what errors you get.
If you use the "shebang" method:
#!/path/to/php
make sure you set the file to executable - it should be 755.
Chris:
No, I'm not getting anything emailed to me -- and I'm using this email
address.
The file is executable and is set at 755.
Last night I was able to access a file, but the errors I received were
first a permission thing, which I changed. Then I received a bunch of
emails back as I tried to get the thing to work -- can't find directory
and such.
But, I was not using anything like:
/usr/local/bin/php /full/path/to/myscript.php
but rather something like:
/home/tedd/public_html/e1.sh
where in the e1.sh file was php code.
However, after reading so much about doing the usr/local/... thing, I
now can't get the /home/tedd/... thing to do anything.
Last thought.. add something like this:
echo "I am in file " . __FILE__ . " at line " . __LINE__ . " at time " .
date('r') . "\n";
to the top of the script that is meant to be running.
Every time it runs it will email you.
If you don't get an email, get your host to check their logs to make
sure it's being triggered properly.
