Hi,

Here is the work-flow for the toolbar update that we want to do.

1. When the client installs the toolbar, we save a JSON or Javascript file on the client computer for eg update_menu.js

2. Everytime the browser loads or on scheduled time, the toolbar loads the file from the server and replaces the saved copy of update_menu.js on the client computer.

3. The toolbar then updates the menu from the local javascript file.

My question is that can we save the file on the client computer, as in can we add the file to the .cab file of the toolbar and then later rewrite it and read from it?

Thanks
Kiran

Just wondering if you guys have found a way of doing that.

Is it possible to save a javascript file on the client computer when we install the toolbar and overwrite it when we update the toolbar from the server.

Thanks
Kiran

You can try to use our toolbar variables to store information locally and update it.
Please, read our Javascript Interface documentation / Var method
