Hi Mark, someone might correct me, but i am pretty sure it is not possible to put something into an http url.
And open file only works with files in a local file system. So if you want to write into a file on the web you can either use ftp. example: put "Hello from LiveCode" into URL "ftp://yourftpserver.com/yourpath" or with ftp username and password put "Hello from LiveCode" into URL "ftp://ftpusername:ftppassw...@yourftpserver.com/yourpath" But, as already mentioned by others in an other discussion, ftp is not secure. Other possibility is to post data into an url. This data then is processed by a script, which writes the data to the file.
