Hi all
I am working on a cd-rom catalogue with shopping cart facility which basically adds slelected options from the swf file to a txt file in the same folder then uploads it to print off the list.
On my PC it works fine but I didint realise that the txt file would not be able to be written to if it is on a CD so I need a way to either collect the selections elsewise, or need to be able to save a txt file onto the users hard disk and then use that location ( need to know it) to loadup the variables later. Or possibly download the whole thing onto their hard disk in a folder by itself so it can work from there?
I dont want any third party tools and I cant pay for it so if there is any genius that can think of a way (I am using flash 5) i would like to know pls!!
thx
