I need to write to a text file using JavaScript. I have a machine

  • 0

I need to write to a text file using JavaScript. I have a machine I need to run some HTML file on and it uses JS to manipulate content. I want to log the changes the user makes in a text file, and the computer does not have and will never have any server-side scripting language. So I just wanna know how to append text to a txt file using JS only. Alternatively, running a batch script upon JS call that will do the work itself, is a good equivalent, but I’m sure it’s the same level of difficulty…

The script will work on an IE only machine, but I need to be able to test it on other browsers as well… So I’m not sure how and if ActiveX works on Chrome for example, but if it doesn’t, I need another solution… Help please! 🙂

    Not exactly the solution I was looking for, but I ended up using cookies, which limits the amount of data I can hold to very little, but beats nothing.
