php script run everyday

[subodh_dg]

I want to create birthday script for my site. Where it should check birthday at specific time in day and send birthday email to all users having birthday.
Problem is that it should happen automatically, how can make sure that script should check birthday only once in day at specific time.
I don't want to use cron.
Is there any better solution?

There are other solutions but none of them are better.

I agree with etully. Anything besides cron will be a kludge. Cron is easy to set up and very reliable.

I just want to know, other ways.
