QT: How do I put text into a text file on the web (this is just too easy but can't get it to work)

[William de Smet]

Hi Mark,

Last night I tried to fix my problem and looked at the server path
using Transmit. Within a minute it worked! I knew it had to be a
simple thing.
Thanks again. So there is no issue with CHMOD like you said!


greetings,

William de Smet
