I am looking to write a program that will ask my visitor for some specific input. Than when the visitor inputs the info, it will take the input and write it to a .doc and call another program on my server to come get the .doc and use the information. Is this possible? Thanks!

Please read this thread (http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=44049) - JavaScript and Java are totally different.

I'm not altogether clear on what you want to do, but I'm pretty sure you will need a server-side language such as Perl or PHP to do this. Find out which language(s) you have available on your server.

as far as reading from or writing to a file is concern,java can do this job for you on server side,however,you need to rephrase your question,it sounds as if you want an input box(JavaScript) for input.
However if you meant a form for input then Java can be used.
