Appending to a text file in JSP

[idam]

Can anyone please advise as to the best approach to appending to a text file in JSP? I would like to be able to have a line of text written to a plain text file every time a button (within an HTML online form) was clicked. Though I want to keep adding to this text file, not have it overwritten with new data every time the button is clicked.
Thank you.

Hi idam,

If you use FileWriter, there is a constructor FileWriter(String fileName, boolean append). If you set append to true, any writes to the file will be appended and will not overwrite the other data.
There is a method inherited from Writer, write(String str) throws IOException, that will write your data to the specified file.

Hope this isn't too simplistic an answer
