Write to text file?

[abeall]

The age old question has been "how do you use Flash to write to a file", and
the answer has and likely will always be "you can't. You have to use a server
side script". Well, hello, Server Side ActionScript. Can you use SSAS to write
to a text or xml file?

[ManMachine]

var myFile = new File("myTextFile.txt");
if(file.exists) file.open("text", "append");
else file.open("text", "create");
file.writeln("Hello world!");
file.close();

myFile = new File("myXmlFile.xml");
file.open("text", "create");
var myXml = new XML();
//build xml document
file.write(myXml);
file.close();

The text can be sent to the server via a NetStream or via a remote method call.

Beautiful.

However, I looked into the mentioned File class, and it looks like it was added in FMS, is there any way to do this in FCS?

Hello :)

in FCS you can use remoting service (AMFPHP for example) and a HTTP
server script to write your file in a server... to receive the content
of this file you must create a new service...
