Call web service from Shell
Hello All,

I have to import data from xml file to mysql database multi-time a day. I think it is better to write a tool to help this. So I write a web service in php. I don't know that if we can call a web service via shell script. If it can, I think we can create a cron job to help run it automatically. Can we do that? And how can we do that?

Does anyone know the best solution in this case?

Thanks,
Eric.
