editing text files with html

text edit with html online

[harrybailey]

Hope this is the right place for this. Sorry if not.

I want to edit a .txt file using HTML.
The scenario is this:

When a window is closed by a user of my site I want the html to find a .txt file and remove a line(s) from it. Is this possible?

If not is it possible using php?

Any help or pushing in the right direction would be great.

It is not possible with straight HTML, but is quite easy with a server-side language. PHP is capable of this. Try asking about it in our PHP forum [webmasterworld.com].
