Hi, I used the code you suggested Simon in this way,
try{
URL myURL = new URL("http://www.indulec.ie/weather.txt";);
URLConnection conn = myURL.openConnection();
conn.connect();
BufferedReader is = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader
(conn.getInputStream(), "UTF8"));
FileOutputStream fOut = openFileOutput("news.txt",
MODE_WORLD_READABLE);
OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut, "UTF8");
String istr;
while ((istr = is.readLine()) != null)
osw.write(istr+"\n");
osw.close();
}
catch (IOException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}
but it doesn't seem to be editing my news.txt file. I have it saved in
the assets folder of my application. Is this correct?
I have <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"></
uses-permission> included in my Manifest, this just has to be
physically typed in right? I don't need to add it in some way.
Thanks very much for any help you can give.
