From: Rob Christiansen on 22 Jul 2010 18:27 this snippet first checks if the file exists. if it does, it does nothing. if it doesn't exist, it creates it. but my code makes my script crash. please, what am i doing wrong? ------------------------------- var filename = filemonth +"-"+ fileday +"-20"+ fileyear +".txt"; var abs_path = String(Request.ServerVariables("PATH_TRANSLATED")); //var FileToWorkWith = abs_path.replace(/\\\w*\.asp/,"\\")+ filename; //<- ??? fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"); if( !fso.FileExists( filename ) ) //cccccccccccccccc { //aaa fso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") f=fso.CreateTextFile( filename ) f.Close } //aaa else { Response.Write( filename +" already exists but will append your new submission. <br>" ); fso.close(); } crazyswede *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

Check of the open file options - I am sure that you can open/append to a file. The file will also be created if it doesn't already exist.

This is ASP-Javascript. The giveaway is "Response.Write()". -- Evertjan. The Netherlands. (Please change the x'es to dots in my emailaddress)

Jscript is just MSish for Javascript, not another language, so calling it so is not wrong at all. -- Evertjan. The Netherlands. (Please change the x'es to dots in my emailaddress) |
