I want to create text file (notepad type file) using javascript. My code is given below but it is not working plz. Suggest me any solution for creating text file.
var txt = new ActiveXObject(Scripting.FileSystemObject);
var s = txt.CreateTextFile(D:\test.txt, true);// means file is store in my D drive.
s.WriteLine('Hello');
s.Close(); `
you can try this:
(function () {
var textFile = null,
makeTextFile = function (text) {
var data = new Blob([text], {type: 'text/plain'});
// If we are replacing a previously generated file we need to
// manually revoke the object URL to avoid memory leaks.
if (textFile !== null) {
window.URL.revokeObjectURL(textFile);
}
textFile = window.URL.createObjectURL(data);
return textFile;
};
var create = document.getElementById('create'),
textbox = document.getElementById('textbox');
create.addEventListener('click', function () {
var link = document.getElementById('downloadlink');
link.href = makeTextFile(textbox.value);
link.style.display = 'block';
}, false);
})();
<textarea id=textbox>Type something here</textarea> <button id=create>Create file</button> <a download=info.txt id=downloadlink style=display: none>Download</a>
