You can run it one of two ways either by having your script called by php

0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /usr/local/php5/bin/php /home/<USER NAME>/path/to/script.php

or by running a text based webpage reader which will run the application for you:

0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /usr/bin/links -dump http://mysite.com/support/auto.php
