ober Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 You cannot do this with AJAX. Saving something on the hard disk of a user's computer (other than cookies) requires something like an ActiveX control.Could you imagine the security nightmare if every other website wanted to put a file on your computer?
