Hi All
It's been a little while since I did some Perl coding
and the questions I have are a little over my head.
I need to write 2 scripts..........
First one sits on a server and runs without being called
from a browser. It's job is to check the time, and if
the time = X then do Y. basically I want a script that
is going to clear a MySQL Db at 4 am every day
The second is way over my head, in short I need
what is going to work like a chat server. The idea
is I have a windows based program (witting in Delphi)
that talks to a script, other uses of this program will
also will also log on. The program will create messages
and send them to the server script and in turn the
script will send that message to all the other programs
As I say just like a chat server except the messages are
done via the program and not the user
I have found a script on the net at
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/97/18/index2a.html?tw=programming
but can't get it to work and don't really understand it.
Can anybody point me in the right direction or have
some example code?
