I have 3 inputs in a form and i want to save the value of input3 as C:\My Documents\(input1)\(input2).
I've tried using an <execCommand("SaveAs")> script, then use a <document.write(C:\...)> script, but the <document.write> script won't work.
Can anyone help me?
Please help,
Bladerbole

JavaScript is client-side code. Trying to save files locally violates the browser security model.

Document.write prints to the current HTML page, not to the hard drive, I believe. There is no way to get JavaScript to write anything to a hard drive. You will need to use a server-side language such as PHP or ASP, to save to the server's drive.
