what is the problem with my ASP Code

[Paramjeet Singh]

I was writing data to an html file through the following cide written a
file called "append.asp"

<%
Set MyFileSystemObject =
Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set MyTextFile =
MyFileSystemObject.OpenTextFile(Server.MapPath("clientlist.htm"), 8,
TRUE)
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<p>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<strong>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<LI>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine(Request.form("company"))
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<br>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("</strong>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine(Request.form("person"))
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<br>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine(Request.form("address"))
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<br>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("Ph. ")
MyTextFile.WriteLine(Request.form("phone"))
MyTextFile.WriteLine("</p>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<center>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<font size=2>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("<a href=#top>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("Top of Page")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("</a>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("</font>")
MyTextFile.WriteLine("</center>")
MyTextFile.Close
response.redirect("confirm.htm")
%>

Now the same code is not working. What reason is behind that. If there
is any coding problem please do let me know as I am not that much
familiar in debugging ASP.

Please try to describe your symptoms without using the words "not working",
"fails", etc. Are you getting errors? Incorrect behavior?

What reason is behind that. If there
is any coding problem please do let me know as I am not that much
familiar in debugging ASP.

Obviously, something has changed on the server. My guess:

If this is not relevant, then provide more information about your symptoms.

I suspect the write permission on "clientlist.htm" is not set.

Now the same code is not working.

Describe "not working" please.
