Calling a CI function periodically - El Forum - 03-07-2010

I wrote some maintenance functions in a controller called 'maintenance'.
I wish to call the CI function periodically (once/day for instance) to make sure parts of my database are in check.
How do I achieve this?

I don't know much about them but I think cron jobs allow you to execute scripts periodically on a server.

Use wget to request the URI.
