save to file - network drive

[pugs421]

The follwoing code works fine when the script resides on the c:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JScript>
<!--

function writeToDisk(writeString) {

var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var a = fso.CreateTextFile("c:\\testFile.txt", true);
a.WriteLine(writeString);
a.Close();
}

//-->
</SCRIPT>

But when I move it to a network drive (z), it will not work.
I have tried making the path "c:\\testFile.txt", and "z:\\testFile.txt",.

but the script only works when it's on the local drive.

Any ideas?

You may want to check with your network administrator about security settings because many networks have safeguards against web pages writing to drives. This is to prevent hackers from filling up network drives with garbage.

I think it's to do with your ActiveX settings. I don't believe you can run ActiveX controls non-locally by default.

Hope this helps,
