Hey all, im trying to write a script for a site im designing, anyway what i need it to do is Every 10-15mins it needs to genertate a 24bit random number, then store that number into a Database then after that rename a Directory to that number. this page will always be open on the server im using so thats not a big problem.

Thanks in Adavance,

Hi there,

Have you tried meta tag in <head> tag of html page like this :
<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="10; URL=http://UrlOfYourpage">

This will refresh your page each 10 minutes....
Your asp script will get executed each 10 minutes..

Hope this helps.

hmmm I'm not sure if this is 10minutes, I think it's 10seconds, but you can try and incrase the value...

That's right. It is 10 seconds not minutes
