saving text to file in javascript?

[NOMADMAN]

in javascript is there a way to save user added info (i.e. text) to the serverside webpages. Sort of like a logging script that tell the location, I can get the location; not the problem, of the users that have previously been there. This way other users can see where other users have come from...

Got it?

Thanks!

If they are submitting the page, then yes. Just have some hidden inputs in the form. Have the client-side script fill in the hidden inputs, and then have the server side whatever make the changes appropriately.

Sounds good, sounds like what I'm tring to do.

But, I'm new to javascript. How would I actually do the saving to the server-side page. A code snip would be very helpful.

Thanks!

I've never messed with JavaSript server-side, so I don't know. You can check out developer.netscape.com or developer.mozilla.com. They should have doco on server-side JavaScript.

I was thinking you were doing something else server-side: ASP, PHP, CGI, JSP, et al.

Thanks, I guess I could ty using ASP... heard its easy to learn. Thats for your help

i don't think that server side JS has the capability by itself to do that.
