probably simple to most of you, but i'm having trouble figuring this
out because of my unfamiliarity with javascript...

i have a textbox that accepts email address, when the user presses the
send button, I want that address appended to a text file on my
server...kinda like a basic mailing list...

any assistance is appreciated...thanks in advance!
(fyi, using Dreamweaver MX 2004)

That requires some server-side scripting ability, either PHP, JSP,
ASP, or some other TLA :)

Of these, only ASP allows you to use Javascript.

Unimportant. You need to find out what server you use and what it
allows you to do.
