Howdo,
this servlet writes a new file, but when i rerun the servlet from the url unchached clientside, it does not write again. But if I call the same servlet with a different name. The first time it appends the data to the end of the file.
If i rerun it, it does nothing again?
anyone know why..
the FileWriter(string,true) should append to the file, but doesnt seem to work twice. is io stream open or something like that?
appreciate the help..
code follows.. thanks..

FileWriter logFile = new FileWriter("/sites/dir/zello3.html", true);
logFile.write(str);
logFile.close();
}
