I need the html code necessary to have in a web page two field asking for for two differents strings. Then looking for and showing a txt file where the name is the sum of those two strings asked before. In case that the txt file does not exist I would need to notify that the file does not exist.

Thanks,

Frank J. Garcia

I don't think HTML, by itself, is going to be the right tool for this.

As far as I know, you are going to have to do this with server-side code (CGI script, ASP or something) and then call that code from the HTML.

You might want to check outMatthew Wright's script archives for some PERL scripts that could be modified to do what you need to do.
