I’m building a site that runs on a timed competition. Every n amount of hours, the competition ends.
Where would I put code that runs on a timed interval?
I was thinking of checking each time a page request is made, but I was looking for another way.
Thanks for your time.
If you are really limited by your hosting you might want to try out this approach: http://www.apterasoftware.com/Blog/Post/09-04-09/Scheduled_ASP_NET_Task_ASP_NET_Cron_Jobs.aspx
It’s a bit of a hack, but saves you money on hosting! 🙂
