Lulzim Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 JavaScritp is client-side scripting language (everything is executed in client's browser) therefore only JavaScript is not able to save data to a database or files. To do that you need a server side programming language such as PHP or ASP.There are a lot of free guestbooks available, just google ithttp://www.google.com/search?num=100&h...amp;btnG=Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jesh Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 You could probably create some type of message board using only javascript, but the only person who would be able to see the messages would be the person who typed in the message and as soon as they left the page or closed their browser, all the messages would cease to exist. If you want something that persists across page views, or can be seen by multiple users, you're going to have to do what Lulzim said and use server-side technologies.

aspnetguy Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 the closet you could get is using AJAX to comunicate to the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
