Cron job and EasyPHP

Question

I am using EasyPHP (my OS = Windows XP) and I wrote a little php script that should update my database every hour while the server is down.

I could include the script in index.php, but then it will only be executed if there is activity on the site.

How do I configure EasyPHP or Cygwin to complete my cron job?

Answer 1

If it is possible to have cron under cygwin, this will be one way.

Another popular way under ms commands is using the scheduler: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308569
