I have a database with some tables from a restaurant and users can see if they are free of reserved. If free they cand book that table.

Now, my question is this: What can i do so that after (let's say 1 day (or any amount of time) after the booking was made to auto change tofree.

I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish but if you need to run a program on a timed basis, then you need to have a look at Cron. It's usually available on most servers.

If you can't do Cron, you can also have a small script that runs on each page load and checks the time vs. the time it was last run (probably keep in a database table). If the time is more than 1 day after the last time it was run, then include the script you want to run.
