Well, I'm afraid you can't write a textfile using JavaScript.
But you can set the Flash-Variable directly.
Let's say you've got a FlashMovie called Film1, then by using the 
following line, you set the Variable some_var contained in anyField 
(hierarchical structure of Flash!!! The Var doesn't need to be 
contained in a Field, or whatever it is called in Flash :) ) to the JS-
Var anyValue.
Film1.SetVariable("/anyField/:some_var", anyValue);
Therefore the FlashMovie has to be on the same Page and has to be 
running (not neccesarily playing though).
HTH
