I am converting one of my sites from dynamic to static using the build html function. I use the expire links feature quite often which leads me to this question- is there a way to re-generate a category page automatically when a link is removed by the system due to expiration? I have tested this and it seems that I must manually generate the page once the link is removed. Since I do not add/edit content each day this is a potential problem.
Not currently possible. Since expirations are all at once daily there's too much invovled to ever have it without load distrubuted. With the load distribution on, though, perhaps, I'll look into it and see if it's realistic.

Another question pending your resolution,
Can the HTML be generated daily via CRON? I know this is not the best way to do this..

Not without writing a complicated script for it, but this was sort of related: www.webmastersite.net/forum...php?id=5827&highlight=cron
