The "correct" way to go about it would be a signed ActiveX component or Java Applet 
embedded in the page, where the user can choose to allow the risk, then you can use 
that component to upload a file on demand.

Perhaps a desktop app is more suitable? e.g. something that runs in the system tray. 
No idea what you are really trying to do though.

Correct, that would be a "no" to the Javascript solution.

Think of the impact on security. You could lift any file off the client's
workstation at will.
