Upload string to dropbox as .txt file

Hi guys,
I've just completed the tutorial about the new "saver" application provided by dropbox. The upload with a predefined url like the koala picture at the tutotrial works pretty well. But my problem is that I have a string defined at my code and I want to save this string to a .txt-file and upload that file to my dropbox account. At the tutorial one has to defined the options like:
var options = { files:['url': '...', 'filename':'...'], etc. }
But like described above I have no url. Any idea? Thanks in advance.
Ps. where could I change the location of the save-file from "saves" (default) to custom folder?

  • Per your other thread, you're probably not going to end up using the Saver anyway. :-) If you use the Core API to upload the file, you can easily upload whatever content you want directly.
