title: Write/read a file on the server with AJAX
body: <p>I know that it probably isn't, but is it possible to write/read a file on the server without server side languages. I've looked in a bunch of places and found oblique references to reading files on the server using <code>XmlHttpRequest</code>. I unfortunately have not found any "good" info on reading files.  </p>
  
  <p>I have found absolutely <strong>nothing</strong> when it comes to writing files without server side languages though. I am somewhat new to coding (4 to 5 months) and started out with HTML/JS, so I don't know any server side languages and when I look at them I get a headache trying to understand. I know AJAX interacts with the server, so I thought there must be <em>some</em> way to write a file on the server with AJAX.  </p>
  
  <p>Please tell me if I'm just being naive or if there it actually some truth behind my hypotheses. If there is a way to do so, then it would be nice to give me a link to an explanation or to give me one yourself.</p>
