You should take a look at Perl @ http://www.perl.com.

Hope this helps,

For the task you want to do a server side solution is the better method. I would only recommend client side processing if you dont have access to a web server with CGI capabilities.

There is server sided java, but for the project you wanna do (I assume) it would be absolutely over scaled. Server sided java requires long professional development and is mostly used by very large traffic sites that have to handly a very large number of simultaneous users.

I would absolutely recommend Perl because its easy and good documented, and its the programming language of choice for processing of any kind of text file.
