You mean to be downloaded as a file and not viewed within the browser?		2008-09-0510:45 AM

I'm only trying to make a file on the net that can have information added to it. So if someone opened the new file and added the info "Hello" another person from another computer could add "How are you?". So when someone views the file it will have the following: Hello How are you?		2008-09-0510:50 AM

You can use FTP to edit the file. But you can't edit the file through the browser unless you have some server-side program that can modify the file as per a user's command.		2008-09-0511:09 AM

Is that how Mystic Shadow's QML chat worked? Sorry if I'm asking stipid questions but I've never done this before		2008-09-056:10 PM

You'd need a program that acts as a gateway between a file and the web server, (you also might want to do a some basic file locking to prevent 2 users posting at the same time). You could accomplish this in perl or php Basically you would want to accept the string then add it to the text file, and depending on the app you might want to display the contents of the text file. I'm taking it you are trying to write a chat app? Do a search on google for chat php or something like that I'm sure there's others that have done something similar, possibly using a database instead of a text file.		2008-09-056:12 PM
