Cron management script...
Ok..thought I would post this here for some ideas, and to let visitors at GT have a go on it Tongue

I have written a script, which will let you add/delete/modify cron jobs (*NIX servers only, obviously). Its only a relativly new script...so I'm looking for ideas on improvements etc. Stuff I'm looking at doing already;

* Validation of numbers being sent (for month, mins etc, to see if they are valid).
* Easier multi-select boxes, to allow people to literally just 'click and submit' their choice of when to run...
* Better error catching for the whole script...
* Any realistic ideas you guys come up with :p

As its only in beta at the moment, there is obviously no docs. Just the script (attached). Its all pretty obviouse. Make a file called cron.txt, and log.txt (or CHMOd your directory to 777, so the script can make them)....and then run the script from your browser.

Well, enjoy Cool

Ooops....can't get rid of that in the forum version. The paid for release has this removed, it was a template thing I had setup, and obviously forgot to remove it :p
