I need to write a php reminder program. I can execute the file in "putty" and then right away it displays time in seconds and I get my reminder message in the email. The problem is I need to set a time for when I should get a email precisely.
Here is the outline:
1) This php program will not display a web page and will be run using cron.
2) The program will open a text file containing a series of lines. Each line contains: hour, minute, day, month, year, email, reminder message.
3) When the program runs, it will open the file. Parse through the file looking for lines that are this time. If one is found it will craft an email to the given email address and send the reminder.
The program is named: lab6part1.php
Here is my code:
Another program is named: lab6part1.txt
Another program is name: crontab
At this point I am completely lost in the maze. I need some serious advice, guidance. Your contribution(s) is highly appreciated.
Thanks
