title: Passing $_GET parameters to cron job
body: <p>I am new at cron jobs and am not sure whether this would would work.</p>
  
  <p>For security purposes I thought about making a one page script that looks for certain GET values (a username, a password, and a security code) to make sure that only the computer and someone that knows all 3 can run the command.</p>
  
  <p>I made the script and it works running it in a browser but is it possible to run the cron job with GET values?</p>
  
  <p>a example would be me running</p>
  
  <pre><code>* 3 * * * /path_to_script/cronjob.php?username=test&amp;password=test&amp;code=1234
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is this possible?</p>
