hi,

i need to run a really long php script (four and half, five hours).

the script sometimes runs successfully, but sometimes gets killed inexplicably (poss something to do with the shared hosting??).

i think that the solution maybe to run the script is smaller chunks.

in order to do this i have written a script that stores it's status & position in an xml file, and executes one chunk of the script, before moving the position on.

i am having problems hooking up the last bit of the script, which should end the current process & re-execute the script.

or maybe i am barking up the wrong tree completely!

i have read through what i can find on SO and elsewhere but i'm still none the wiser :(

please help!!!
