How do I refresh mysql queries every X-minutes.
I am using php to refresh oracle data to a mysql database, that part is fairly smooth. I need a way to run this code every 15 minutes. I do not have to have the refresh run on a website, and would prefer to do this through an application (ex. Java). Does anyone know the best way, or best programming language to do the following that could be automated?
Currently I query an Oracle database, send info to Mysql database (currently using php via an intranet website to send to txt file, then using DATA FILE INLOAD to write to mysql.

qbonep, my comment was a server-side solution that will run 24/7 and does not require running out of a web page. Did you not understand my suggestion, perhaps?

What shobinson sent you would be a great example. I would highly recommend the first link. It actually shows using a PHP script as the target of a scheduled task via the cron system.
