What do people think about this strategy:

To display client-side local file:
Use jmol "load ?".

To upload the file to the server side when the user hits a button:
get the absolute path of the local file from jmol, 
Use xmlhttprequest send() to upload the file to server

for reference, this is my original problem:
I want to display a pdb file on the client-side first, and then upload to the 
server only when users are ready to submit the form.

Thanks,

This is essentially my problem-- getastext, getasbinary only works with ff3. 
Anybody know of any equivalent methods that would work with safari and IE? 
Thanks.
