I am currently developing an aplication based on Xampp. This will have to send maximum 1 email per day to a user to notify him about something. That something is based on a specifict test, such as if a set date in a table is past the current day. Is there a way to generate this test every day, or what is a suitable solution for this problem?
i think that you run xampp u use a windows maschine. therefor use the windows task scheduler and point to your xampp/php/php.exe and execute this file. in your windows scheduler you can set the options to run this task every day.
C:\xampp\php.exe -f "C:\PHP Scripts\script.php"
Since you are using Windows, so you must use windows scheduler to do this http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows/schedule-task Xampp won't be able to run cron job
