Using the readline method in JS: I am able to get the readline function to pars an integer out of a text file locally. as in the code below.

Can this be use to point to a text file in a website, such as "filename = "/

http://www.domain.com/folder/text/test.txt";"

 So far I only get a "undefined" result for the vars, in the attempt to read the text file in a webserver.

    // filename = "/c:maxtestfile/test.txt";

http://www.domain.com/folder/text/test.txt";

    typelist = new Array("iLaF" , "maxb" , "NUMBER" );

    f = new File(filename, access, typelist);

    while(f.isopen && f.position < f.eof ){

        x = parseInt(f.readline(1) + "\n");

function bang(){
	// filename = "/c:maxtestfile/test.txt";
	filename = "/http://www.domain.com/folder/text/test.txt";
	access = "readwrite";
	typelist = new Array("iLaF" , "maxb" , "NUMBER" );
	f = new File(filename, access, typelist);

	while(f.isopen && f.position < f.eof ){
		x = parseInt(f.readline(1) + "\n");
		y = (x*.142)+3.01;
		j = 14;
	}
	post("the num in file is");
	post(x);
	post();
	f.close();
}
