I would run scripts as scripts and web pages as web pages. It would
surprise me if PHP was not also installed as CLI interpreter. Just open
a terminal on the machine and type:

php -v

This will show the PHP version of the CLI interpreter or a message
"command not found" if it is not installed.

But if you want to call it as a web page, you can use a simple browser,
like lynx or wget in the CRON job.

In both cases, note that CRON sees output as something that went
possibly wrong and will try to mail it to you. So you better redirect
the output of the browser or the script to a log file.

Personally, I would just use a PHP script and not use a browser from
CRON if I don't need it.

Good luck,
