No I haven't gotten to that yet. I read that entire thread and came away with no clear understanding of its relevancy to my question or what the code meant or how I might vary it to work appropriately with my system. But assuming it runs once a day or once every ten minutes, my question is:

1. When does the command get issued to delete an expired ad?
2. Where does that command originate from?
3. What control do I have on it?

In addition, what would be the procedure for an advertiser to reinsert his ad before it has expired? I assume he would mark it sold and then reinsert it, but I do not know for a fact that this is the correct or best way to do it.
