i want to /htdocs/html/something.php to run every 15 minutes, the command i got was something like:

0, 15, 30, 45 /htdocs/html/something.php

is that right cause it doesnt seem to work

Thanks,

That will only work if PHP is installed as a stand alone program, not as an apache module... assuming you are using apache

[frigidman]

However, you CAN install PHP as both an apache module, and commandline-able. I run this setup with no ill effects at all, and it is really reliable to use the commandline version of PHP for crons, than to use a web call to your web server through a cron.

I wrote a post about this that I won't repeat a third time:
