It is not possible to modify the contents of a file on a Web server directly from the client. You would have to run code on the Web server to modify the file. You could send parameters in a Web request, such as the file name and the text you'd like to insert. Then have the receiving page (written in ASP or PHP or some other server-side language) modify the file.Phil Weber at 2007-11-11 23:10:40 >

Maybe. Is your Web server running Windows? Do you have ASP or ASP.NET available on your hosting account? If so, please post an example of the file and describe how you would like to modify it.Phil Weber at 2007-11-11 23:12:47 >

Inside testfile would be sumthin like:
User ID: 1
and modify to like add another UserID
User ID: 1
User ID: 2
and so on/ So like add text to the file
