texte = Paul (and Bob for your reply as well about curl).Thanks for the suggestions. I do have wget on my server and already use cron for a number of other things, just never knew how to schedule hitting of a webpage using cron. With the suggestions of wget and curl I have a way around it now.Too bad such a needed feature in such an expensive product can't work reliably after so many versions.And the triggers always worked fine for me with WebCat 3.x on Mac OS (not X).New features are great, but not when existing features constantly fail to work.
