I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but then I would have no way of
writing the text file, unless I had a scripting language installed (like
CF) but I want to make this very user friendly and as close to
dummy-proof as possible.

why not just design it in IE, have it fill up the whole screen, use some
flash elements to make it looks flashy or nice or whatever, but use
regular ol' HTML forms

Subject: SOT: desktop application
I have a question about what the best practice would be for creating a
desktop application. I do websites for some different bands, and they
all have an e-mail sign-up on their website. Most of them also have
some kind of a paper sign-up at concerts for people to sign up for the
email list. I was considering building an app that would run on a
desktop to allow people at concerts to enter their email address and
write it to a text or xml file that could then be uploaded to the
webserver and parsed into the database.
My question is what would be the best method to do this? I was
thinking
of doing the front end in Flash but I'm not sure how to write to a
file
from there. In theory, this app would need to work on a mac and a pc.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
