Put it all in a separate page and call that page from another machine where
CRON/SCheduled Tasks are allowed....or put a time check in your page and
call it like a function whevever users hit your site

Is there a way in php to execute a SELECT statement in the future? What I
am wanting to do is use a page to parse a database at a future time. I
want to send out some email about an event I am putting on, but I don't
want to execute the select statement until 2:00am. I could use cron for
this, but I would perfer not, as I am writing an application in which cron
may not be an option. Is there 3rd party engines that will do this?
