Topic awaiting preservation: Updating flat files with Javascript (Page 1 of 1)

Hi,

For the moment I'm surfing the net to find out how I can update flat files with javascript. Binding textfiles to my webpages, sorting, filtering, it all works but I can't find a way to update this text file. The longer I seek, the more I believe It's not possible to update a text file on the server with client side javascript.

The only thing I'm looking for is a way to allow users to save messege in a text file of my website, something like the functionality of a guestbook, but with other purposes. If anyone knows how I can do this, please let me know.

Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

You will need to involve server side scripting in order to create or edit any files on the server.

Damned, another programming language I need to learn. It realy never stops! Where do all of you get the time to learn this all?? A man got to work too and a day has only 24 hours!
