Run javascript from Cron-Job.org

I am trying to use a cron-job to run a .js file. But I can't find any way of doing so.

I wasn't aware of cron-job.org until I saw this question. It's apparently a service that runs a script you provide on a timed basis. The FAQ doesn't mention what scripting languages are supported other than PHP.

If after signing up, you didn't get additional instructions about how to use other languages, you might try contacting their info email address. It might help if you read and write German.

Otherwise, you might want to jump on the PHP Development track.

Do you have any knowledge to any other cron-job?

You should be able to run time-based scripts where your own web pages are hosted.
