From: "Weßling, Achim" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > does someone knows a taglib for reading and writing a textfile? The IO tag library allows you to read and write from and to URLs which allows you to serve up files from some server via HTTP, FTP or the file protocol. So it can easily GET and POST files using HTTP (or HTTPS, XML-RPC or SOAP) http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/io-doc/intro.html Though I don't think you can currently write to the file:// protocol via URLs and the IO taglib doesn't support the creation of temporary files and such like, so it might not totally fit your needs.
