Create a textfile inside your application say  Log.txt; System.IO. StreamWriter objWriter;//Declare this as public. string LOG_FILE_NAME; //Declare this as public. protected void Page_Load( object sender EventArgs e) { LOG_FILE_NAME = Server.MapPath( Log.txt ); } Now you will be knowing what will be the conversation between server and client. Put this in a string and call it in the following function inside the proper event handler. string strMessage =;//assign the conversation here WriteLogMessage (strMessage); public void WriteLogMessage( string strMessage) { try { if (System.IO. File .Exists(LOG_FILE_NAME) == true ) { objWriter = System.IO. File .AppendText(LOG_FILE_NAME); } else { objWriter = System.IO. File .CreateText(LOG_FILE_NAME); } objWriter.Write(strMessage + Environment .NewLine); } catch ( Exception ex) { } finally { objWriter.Flush(); objWriter.Close(); } }
