Hi EveryT, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

 

Currently, it isn't possible to create or edit text files on the Dropbox site directly from the browser.

 

If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

      Thanks for sharing this request upwards, adding here to say there are many of us (searching this forum for "text edit web" gets tons of hits) looking to edit text files in browser in dropbox.
      Appreciate your voice!
