Hi all,
I need to write a file to the client PC. I know javascript / html doen't usually have rights to do this, but I'm working on my company's intranet and in the IE trusted zone so I can use ActiveX components such as the FileSystemObject. I just can't get this working yet.
The file I'm copying is stored in a database and I usually access it to display it on a web page using a
servlet (delivers it through a buffered output stream). I'm trying to do something like this:
fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
fso.CopyFile("http://serv:8080/app/getPic?PicID=46", "c:\\file.jpg");
The error I'm getting is "path not found" - I can only assume the fso can't access a URL to get a file.
Am I on the right track or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Any ideas anyone??
Thanks in advance,
Aidan
