Thanks Peter.
I think I stumbled upon the error and it was as you suggested, what boiled down
to a simple typo.
Its now behaving and doing what it should.

The problem with your second script appears to be here:
if tAction = "track" then
If I change that to if 1 = 1 then, the file is written to the folder containing
the script.
What is the URL you are using to access this script?
Regards
Peter
