I mean if I want to create an html file, then write into it, how would I do that? 


see http://mindprod.com/applets/fileio.html

File lets you play with the file name, check for existence, delete.
But it does not do anything with contents.

You need say a FileWriter FileOutputStream or such.

thank you Roedy, you mean to CREATE files I need FileWriter and FileOutputStream? it says in docs under FileWriter:

  Convenience class for writing character files.

(still don't know if by "writing" is meant creating a new file or just adding content to an existing file..)

this guy http://javaalmanac.com/egs/java.io/CreateFile.html?l=rel
seems to be implying you CAN create new files w/class File.. thank you Roedy..
