Haven't found this mentioned anywhere in the forum, so I thought it appropriate to ask.
I would like to add a "daily digest" feature to my forum that emails a digest of new posts for the day to those users who have chosen to receive it. A colleague of mine has put together most of the code that generates the digest and emails it, the big question is now how to trigger this event at the end of each day. I'd like to know if anyone has a ideas on this, at present the only solution seems to be to put some code on my main website front page and have the first visitor after midnight to activate the script following a time/date checking routine which runs from the index page. Is this effective?
