 Creating Text File on Client's Local Machine When Accessing Web Default Page

Is it possible to create a text file on a client's local machine using
VBScript or JScript when they access a Web Site's default page?  If so, are
there any samples or examples that describe this in depth?  Thank you.

Why don't you use the fileSystemObject - plenty of documentation with
vbscript.

FSO isn't "safe" (for obvious reasons ;-) for client side web page use unless the user explicitly
gives permission by lowering security (not usually a good idea)...
