Hello Guys,

I was wondering whether there is some script or something that I can run on my site.

I basically have a form that generates a pdf on my server. The only problem is that I have to log in to the server to retrieve the file.

Is there some script I can run that will just automatically email me the file?

I am using a linux server. I can use PHP or mysql. I also have access to cpanel

Thanks

Why can't you alter the script to do just that - generate the PDF and email it to you? Or at least email you an alert?

If you can't alter the script, perhaps you could set up a cron job to check for a PDF in a given location every hour or so and email you if it finds one?

That's what I would like to do, but how?

Why can't you alter the script like pgo suggested? It's by far the best option.

Because my programming skills suck.

I can alter something to my needs if it is already there. I can't write it from scratch.

Thanks

Sounds like it's probably going to cost you a few bucks then, unless you can find a pre-existing script to do it for you, although I don't imagine you will have an easy time finding such a script, as what you are looking for is somewhat customized.

Post the script you have (the pdf generator) and maybe we can make some suggestions. Doing new things is the best way to learn.
