You are correct. I clicked on the TOC link and there were several sections that I had missed. Not sure how it happened but thanks for putting me on the right track.
-----Original Message----- From: A mailing list for discussion about Sun Microsystem's Java Servlet API Technology.

AFAIK, it makes no difference whether you use these apis in a servlet, an application, an applet, except some SecurityManagers might complain if you use them in an applet and don't have permission. -mw | Hello, I have successfully setup tomcat4 on LM8.1 and have been fiddling | about with some of the example servlets, and have completely gone through | the java tutorial on sun's site. What I didn't encounter was any tutorials | on file i/o routines where I can save user information to a data file and | read back and posted. I thought this kind of odd, since most programs do | read/write data to files. I downloaded a very simple application. It's a | guest book application that is pretty much bare bones. It keeps the entries | in memory and loses the data if I restart tomcat. I want to be able to save | these entries and have them read for display. Can anybody point me to some | good online tutorials that cover file i/o using servlets? | Thanks | Don | | ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
