I know this type of question has been asked many times in this forum but i still havent found exactly what I’m looking for.

I just need an online text file editor so that my clients can go to a page and edit sections of the flash site (ie the news file which would be news.txt).

I have been led to many content management systems and these are too advanced for waht i need, and I’m not interested in using xml updating either as my scrollText is based on txt files.

The best example I have found is [this](http://share.studio.adobe.com/axAssetDetailSubmit.asp?aID=7288&back=http://share.studio.adobe.com%2FaxBrowseSubmit.asp%3Ft%3D50) which is an editor made in flash but unfortunately it didnt come with a .fla file which prevented me from modifying it.

Hope you can help,

Cheers
