So it all depends upon when the software was last launched, and whether or not any webdna page requests have come in since then, and what platform you're on ...When you're running on MacOS Classic and using WebSTAR, you can rely on the daily triggers to be run every time the software is launched, no matter what time they are actually supposed to run. I rely on this 'bug' to send myself an email message every time the software is launched -- which happens when the server is automatically rebooted once a day.
