Hi Mike,
Worked great!! Thank you very much. Exactly what I'm trying to do.

You need to set up a script to catch the data, and you need to send the
data using a key=data type format.
So for example if you're sending a book chapter to your server, and the
text of the chapter is in variable tChapter
post ("chapter1=" & urlencode(tChapter)) to URL "
http://myUrl.com/myscript.lc";
put it -- will put whatever is returned into the msg box
For the script itself, since we know the key name..
<?lc
if $_POST["chapter1"] is not empty then -- post is a special variable where
posted data is held
put $_POST["chapter1"] into URL "file:chapter1.txt" -- put the data into a
file
put "chapter saved" -- send a message back that the chapter was saved
else
put "no chapter sent" -- send an error message back
end if
?>
Obviously this is a very simple example that wouldn't be very useful, but
hopefully it will give you the idea.
The chapter1.txt file will be created right next to your script (since i
didn't tell it elsewhere) so to look at the file you would go to
http://myUrl.com/chapter1.txt

Hi,
Messing with a LC script in a web page, writing a variable to a text file
on my on-rev server account.
The dictionary says the postmyData toURL"
http://www.example.net/indications.cgi"; should work, but it doesn't. I
get an 404 error.
I am trying to save a variable's text contents by using
post myData to URL "http://www.mydomain.info/data.txt";
Can anyone tell me the proper way?
Thanks,
