hmm I'm using a free server (000webhost) which only seems to allow the print -f command, it doesn't allow you to type the whole command, thanks for the reply though svgmx5 I'll have a root around! :-)

I am building an online booking system for a project I am working on. i need to launch a webpage every day so that it can run a script which will check the dates of appointments, and send an e-mail to the given user 2 days in advance. From research on the internet it seems I need to use' cron' I have input a cron command to run every 5 minutes for testing purposes follows but nothing seems to happen */5 0 * * * php -f /home/a9645958/djtimbutterfield.hostzi.com/tteeth/mailtest.php I know the mailtest.php page works as an e-mail is sent to the given -mail address when I execute it... can someone please suggest where I am going wrong? I have not used this function before?
