Hi,

I would like to implement a file browser dialog in a jupyter notebook.

ie: when some widget button is pressed a file-browser dialog pops up over 
the browser, and the user selects a file.

I have tried a few methods so far, but I am not satisfied with any of these

1)
I have tried it with a pure javascript/html code using the construct  <input 
type="file">.  But using this method I can get just the name of the file 
selected. not even the relative path, or let alone the absolute path of the 
file.

2)
I have implemented a solution using PySide, a python binding for QT. Using 
this solution, I can get the file path. But QT brings a whole lot of 
baggage to software which I would like to avoid.

3)
Is there a node-js based solution, Is there any sample code for such a 
file-browser?
I took a look at https://github.com/jupyter-attic/jupyter-js-ui. But I am 
having a hard time trying to come up with some working version of sample 
code.

-thanks
