String field theory is a candidate for a full non-perturbative definition
of string theory. We aim to define string field theory on a space-time
lattice to investigate its behaviour at the quantum level. Specifically, we
look at string field theory in a one dimensional linear dilaton background,
using level truncation to restrict the theory to a finite number of fields.
I will report on our preliminary results at level-0 and level-1.
