AJAX question … selective load of records

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 02.2008

I have a rather large text file that I would like to manipulate with JS

I don’t need all the records (lines) in the text file, only selected ones.

Is is possible to use AJAX to get the text file,
but only transfer (or collect) the selected records I need?
…..
or do I need to load the large text file
and parse out the lines that I need as two separate actions?

I would if I could, but I don't have access to writing to the

area where the data is stored. I can read it, just no writing.

Thanks for the thought ... any others? ?

Yes...that was what my original post was about.

Is there a way to do it (I'm no pro either)?

Guess I'll keep looking or asking and see which fills my cup first.

Thanks. ?
