Hi,

I am currently trying to run a PHP script in cron that sends out an email to me. In the command I put

/usr/local/bin/lynx --dump http://url to php file

I tried messing around, such as only putting one dash infront of dump but it didn't work. I know it isn't anything to do with the php file as that works.

So then I ran off to my host and he said that lynx isn't installed on the server and that it won't be in the future.

I wondered if anyone knows how to do this in cPanel 5 XP?

Thanks!

What exactly is it you are trying to do? Is it anything curl or GET might be able to do?

I've tried curl before, but I just tried GET and it worked!! Thanks
