I would like to program some PHP scripts to issue a trade at certian predetermin times.

Possibly using the Linux cron job.

Has anyone used PHP with this API?

Thanks for any suggestions or sample scripts.

Short answer: "No". There have been rumors in the past that you would be able to use COM objects using MONO in Linux but we have not tested this out. Last time I checked there was no real support for COM objects in Perl. If you find out how to use COM objects in Linux with Perl please keep us updated.

Are the the COM Objects loaded in the browser and not dependent on the OS of the web page.

Perhaps I don't understand your answer?

I want to run a script at a certain time - The timing is no problem this can be done with the Linux cron job.

But is there a way to access the API - for example can it be done through XML files....?

Thanks for your help

Did you ever figure out how to do this?

I've got a PHP script that's been working moderately well. At the moment, it wakes me up and I put the order in myself. It would be great to have an automated system though.
