If you're asking whether this is possible in a web browser, then no, access to arbitrary files on the user's machine without the user's input is not a feature of web browsers; it would be a security problem. I think Java applets are able to do that, however, so if you need that functionality, you could write a Java applet and embed it into your web page. The user will get a prompt asking whether they want to allow Java to access their files. -- Job board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ New group rules: https://gist.github.com/othiym23/9886289#file-moderation-policy-md Old group rules: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
