I have been searching for weeks to find asp message board code in its rawest form so that I can modify it to my needs. What I am looking for is code that will process a simple html for such as:
<html><head><title>title</title></head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="aspPage.asp">
Enter your comments:<br>
<textarea name= "postedText" rows="8" cols="110">
</textarea><br>
Enter your name:
<input type="text" name="name"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit your Comment">
</form></body></html>
and then take the data entered into the form and save it to a file (maybe a .txt file) and then be able to retrieve the comments from the file and print them to a "comments" page. Also this page would be automatically updated when the user submits the form.
I am a little familliar with asp, but am still learning. All I have figured out so far though is how to save the form data to a variable like:
<%
Dim postedText, name
postedText=Request.Form("postedText")
name=Request.Form("name")
%>
If anyone could help me with the simplest code possible to perform this task, I would be very greatfull! I want the bare bones code so I can learn from it and expand it. Also I am trying to avoid the use of a database. Is this all possible?
