Ok, it must be one of the most fundamentally useful things in a programming
language, to be able to read and write files.
I want to know how i can do this in Javascript. I want to open a text
file, use it to fill some variables on a webpage. And have that webpage
save any changes.
Is there a single command like the C fopen("filename ", "ra");?

Depends on the programming language and its environment.

If its running on your local computer, yes, under certain limitations.
If its a Windows based IE, you can use the FileSystemObjec t to read
files from the local drive and then save them, with security permission
given.
If you want to read/write files on a server, you can read them with an
HTTPRequestObje ct but JS has no ability to write files on a server, you
have to do that on the server.
Is there a single command like the C fopen("filename ", "ra");?
Depends on where the files are. Whether they are on the users computer
or on the server. The FileSystemObjec t ActiveX in MSIE on a PC can do
that. Search MSDN.

Hi All -
I'm not sure, but I'm wondering if this is a bug, or maybe (more
likely) I'm misunderstanding something...see below:
>>> f = open('testfile', 'w')
>>> f.write('kevin\n')
>>> f.write('dan\n')
>>> f.write('pat\n')
>>> f.close()

Hi,
I have an array of data (which I am getting from a socket connection).
I am working on a program which acts on this data but the program is
written to work on data from a file (not from an array). I cannot
change anything in the program but can add some features by which I
can convert this array of data into a file. The easiest thing would be
to write the data into a file (in hard disk) and use it. But I will be

Hello peeps,
I am using PHP 5.2.2 together with MP3_Id (a PEAR module for reading and
writing MP3 tags). I have been using PHP on the command line (Mac OS X
Unix shell, to be precise), and am getting on more or less OK.
So far, I have managed to parse my tab-delimited .txt file properly into
an array, and then use this array to update the tags on a bunch of MP3
audio files. Nice.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
