Anyone Know A Script That Will Do This? - GoFuckYourself.com

What i want to do is have a 'generic' message template setup with a couple of id tags to insert data from an admin area that i enter.

So for example, on the 1st of April 2005 i fill out a couple of fields in the admin section which would be:

Name
Email
Drop Down Time Period (1-12)
Cost

After hitting submit on that form i dont have to touch that data again.

Every time the 'time period' field gets close, in this example, if i selected 1 month, on the 25th of April it sends an email out to the address i entered in the admin area automatically as well as to me.

Also, if the time period has elapsed and hasnt been changed, it sends me an email to remove it from the admin system.

basically, what im looking for is a method of automating billing renewal emails / invoices without having to touch anything other than once a 'period' to update the time frame of a campaign.

So anyone know if such a thing exists?

Regards,

Lee

We're running on a *nix system and we were hoping for a .php based program with a MySQL backend so it could be implemented into some other applications in the future.

I program in PHP and Coldfusion and something like this wouldn't be hard at all to setup. The only thing I am not aware of in PHP is how to setup a scheduled task, but the code wouldn't be a problem.

Are you looking for just that one part of the admin or an entire admin site?

Just that part of the script as a stand alone product for now.

As far as the scheduled task thing goes, thats not really a big deal as long as its possible to have some kind of coding to 'update' manually, we could just run a cron job on that section of the app to run every night at 12.
