you can execute scripts as cron jobs. what is the OS?
Note that for cron jobs you should not have browser based output...any output, errors, etc should be sent to a file.

How do I get my PHP funcitons to execute independantly based on what time of day it is and not on the user?
This may not be how PHP was designed but I would like to do things like send out an email to someone based on suchandsuch criteria, backup DB on regular schedule etc.
