Opening a text file (VBscript)

Hi,

Is it possible to open up a text file and then have it displayed in a HTML <TEXTAREA>? If so how? Also, if that is possible, how would I save it after changes have taken place? Thanks

here ya go, read a text file into a textarea:

Code:

---

<TEXTAREA>
<%
       
        dim fso
        dim objTxtStream
        dim strText
       
        set fso = server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
       
        set objTxtStream = fso.OpenTextFile("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\myfile.txt", 1)
        strText = objtxtstream.ReadAll
        Response.Write strtext
       
        set fso = nothing
        set objTxtStream = nothing
       
       
%>
</TEXTAREA>

---

after you submit the form, get the value, and use objTxtStream.Write method to rewrite the file
