From: WebEDI on 7 Jun 2010 08:50 Hi - I'd like access to pass the date & time to a PHP web service. Something like: www.website.co.uk/php_script.php?datetime=13:42:00-7-Jun-10 The web service will update a field in a MySQL database with the data that is passed to it, in this case '13:42:00-7-Jun-10' There will also be a script that runs on a cron every hour checking this date, and if it hasn't been updated, then it sends a text to my mobile phone saying the system has crashed. Pretty cool, I'm sure you'll agree! I know what your thinking, why not just connect access directly to the mysql table via odbc - the reason is I have 4 seperate databases I want to monitor, so I want to log them all in one database to keep it neat and tidy. I can do all the PHP stuff no problem - trouble is, how do I get access to fire the website hit without opening a browser?? Happy to shell out to windows if this is an option. Must be a common question but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere, so has anyone got any ideas?? Cheers Graeme.

A web browser control would do the job, as well as displaying any results from the command. You can also examine in code the content returned. -- David W.
