Firefox 24.0 for Linux.  Just double-checked.  I cannot select multiple
files using the Browse button, for some reason.  It could be some
parameter of the button which has different default value in different
browsers.

This worked. (you missed closing quotation marks).  I thought, there
should be a solution like that, but have not come across anything like
that.

Thanks a lot.

Yes.  I'm very familiar with Perl.  I often use it at work.  I think, it
was originally created to process text files.  Most likely, there is a
Perl module to handle JSON files, but the syntax is simple enough to
create them manually.  The JSON file you describe seems to be very easy
to create from a CSV file using any text editor.  My favorite Vim would
work just fine.
