Using Form to Update Java Text File - 12/15/2001 16:28:16
Hi,
I use a scroller java applet on a site that reads a text file and scrolls the text on the screen.
I would like to create a DRW form that will pull up the current contents of the text file, allow the user to edit the text, and submit the form to replace the previous text file.
Is that even possible?
Here's what I tried so far: I created a form at:
http://www.agd.state.tx.us/49_division/scribevision/admin/updates/updt_stat_text.asp
that displays a "sample" text file from a database in text boxes. The user can modify the text. The form is set to post to a text file called 'status.txt'. I can change the text and hit the submit button, but the status.txt file is unchanged.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Its not so much a database question, as a FSO question.
You can write an actual text file if you have the correct permissions.
You perhaps may want to read the actual input from a database field? and not text file?
