Cant guarantee this will work but try..
/usr/bin/php /home/USERNAME/public_html/forum/signature.php
or if that doesnt work try
/usr/bin/lynx --dump http://www.4xtraders.com/forum/signature.php

Just call either one if it works every 15 minutes... then use http://www.4xtraders.com/sigfolder/signature.jpg

Ok... now won't I have to create WHERE I want the picture to go to... or it just knows 'where' to put it from the signature.php script itself?

I was thinking I had to create a php just to tell it to create the pic and put it somewhere and rewrite what was there before.

Shouldnt.. and I think youll need to link to signature.png

OK... this is what I have added to my CPanel cron job from the Advanced (Unix Style) options

15 * * * * lynx > /dev/null -dump http://www.4xtraders.com/forum/signature.php

I have one for my phpAdsNew that looks all the same (minus location) but I have no clue what the hell the 15 * * * * lynx > does but will see.....

anyone know?

Now this /sigfolder/.... is this what the signature.php creates? or where can I find where the cron puts it?

got it all to work great.... what is the limit of size here on vb.org

Thanks DWard and venomx for all your help

Maybe post how you did it so others can know what to do if they wish to do the same thing,

for my cron job... i have cpanel and with my host I use the Advance Unix Style with:

15 * * * * lynx > /dev/null -dump http://www.4xtraders.com/forum/signature.php

The 15 is the duration of time I wanted (15 minutes)... the other * each mean something else. My 15 would be the first * for minute, the second (for the first in the above example) is hour, next is day... month and last is weekday (no clue what that does).

Then I just point to my folder that I have my sig.jpg in... the cron just dumps it where ever it finds it in the script.

Say... what do I do to make my text bold?

I tried it on my server and got a cron error email full of weird stuff.. hehe so I tried another way and so far its working... will see tomorrow how well it did...

I am not sure how to do bold in this :(

Thanks, it work awesome :)

Click install then :)
