Hello everyone!

Can anyone help or point me in the right direction? I have a Flash application that displays text that it reads from a text file. What I want is some way the user can edit the text file in the browser and then either replaces the text in the file or just replaces the whole file.

I can use ASP and ColdFusion, I just wasn't sure where to start as the text has to be compatible with being viewed in a textbox in Flash.

Thanks in advance,

Katherine
 
You can use whatever server side code you are comfortable with. The only thing you may need to be concerned about is the way the user adds the information to the text file. If it is name/value pairs then not continuing the format will break the flash app.

Hope it helps.
