So the boss wanted to get a bunch of stats out of the database on a daily basis. Our server guy has been doing it for her, and he complains that it takes time, which it does. And he does not pull all the data she wants because some of it needs to be cleaned before it will display nicely. So I figured it would be better done with a php script set to execute in a daily CRON. I got put to this because she really wanted the data that was dirty. I could see my way threw the project but I had to figure out one or two things. The main being how do you sent an email with an attachment with code. So the next few posts will be addressing e-mailing with code, and data cleaning.
