Java Script Logfile

[jeffwest1]

Does anyone have any code that will set up a simple logfile of persons entering an inital page on a intranet site, i just need to write the network id, Time and date into a text file.

I only want to do this for a short time to enable me to find an rouge network user.

I assume you don't want to write the file to the machine that's accessing the intranet, but rather the server that is hosting it, in which case JS is the wrong tool to use.

If you want to write the log file on the server you'll need to use a server side language to do so. Such as ASP, PHP, Coldfusion.

Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.

if you have enough information you should be able to grab this directly from the webserver logs.

If the only browser in use on your intranet is IE, then you could probably use an old FAQ I wrote as a good starting point: faq216-5305

As Phil points out, by default this would write the logfile to the local PC, but you could potentially write to a shared folder somewhere.

Hope this helps,
