1. is there a way i could save a file (.txt) on clients local hard drive (aside from yummy cookies)? pls don't say activex control or applets just give write aspnet permission to your folder to save a txt file using system.IO . 2. can javascript read/interpret ASP/ASP.Net sessions/application? you can choose one server side language. if you choose javascript then you can read else not . 3. if i embed some javascript codes on a server control (runat=server autopostback=false) so that processing is done on client-side will not the control trip to server? control will trip to server .
