i need a servlet to write and periodically append/modify files (*.txt and *.xml) to a location on the server, based on input from the client side. can jsp or servlets do this, or can a servlet call another java file to do it?

Could you share this servlet?

sure. this works on my machine running jswdk 1.0.1. use this html file
to call this servlet
to add another line of text to the created file, use this html
to call this servlet
which imports this class
you can have all the neccessary code in the servlet, but i was experimenting with calling other classes from a servlet, so that's how this one is. hope this helps. [This message has been edited by Eric Johnson (edited September 26, 2001).]
