Hi,

I want to write a java app/servlet to be web delivered, I know this sounds a
bit demanding but hopefully the discussion group is up to helping me with
the technical direction this project should take. It is the creation, entry
and updating of files over the Internet which is paramount here! Let me
explain:

I want to create a simple 'charity account project', CAP for short. CAP will
allow charity organisers thru' their browsers to enter their
charity/organisation details, this needs to be stored in a
file(charity_<charity>.txt) on the server. Once this is created the charity
organiser goes to their charity transactions entry page (security issue?)
and  enter, details of and proceeds from car boot sales, fetes etc.. and
produce (trans_<charity>.txt) when they are happy with the details they
submit this file to be added to the cumulative file trans.txt. This is then
batch processed (offline ?) and a html statement is produced of the
accumulated details for each charity, for downloading and inclusion into
their web site, printed out for their charity newspaper, whatever!

Will there be any problems keeping the files on the web server/ web page
(apart from size)?
Where should I run the batch process?
Is servlets the right way to go?
Are there any problems you can forsee?
Are there any tips you can give?
Any ideas on security?
