How to write data in file with new line on Mozilla 2

[sonali09]

Hi

I want to write data in file using java script, on Mozilla 2.

For that I wrote function as :

function FileWriteFF(sText)
{
alert ("FileWriteFF");

netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalXPConnect");

try
{
stream = Components.classes["@mozilla.org/network/file-output-stream;1"]
.createInstance(Components.interfaces.nsIFileOutputStream);

stream.init(file, 0x02 | 0x08 | 0x10, 0666, 0);

stream.write(sText,sText.length);


}

catch (e)
{
alert(e);
}

}

FileWriteFF("data");

With this is writing data continuously. If I want to write data on new
line, how to do that. I tried with "\n" , but it is not working.

What language is this? I'm a bit baffled - it seemed like this isn't a usual JS.

Anyway, I'm not sure for a fix, but try to change this part:

Code: Select all

stream.write(sText,sText.length);


...with:

Code: Select all

stream.write(sText+'<br>',sText.length);
