I have a HTML website with a form on it that requires users to input their email address. I want the user’s response to be saved to a plain text file on my hard drive. The complication is that I don’t have web servers, which makes it difficult to do this. When I’ve tried to do this before, it just links the user to the empty text file.

I tried putting the name of the .txt as the form’s action, and it just linked me to the file, giving me a blank screen.
