Answer 1

all right,
First of all for running a script even if you close your browser you need a cron job for apache and a scheduled task for IIS.
here is a tutorial for cron job

What you need to do:
1) write a script which checks database table for data and if records found it sends email.
2) add this script to cron job
3) You are done.
