Upload/read An Xml From A Local Drive Of Any Platform?
Jan 11, 2010I need to upload/read an xml from a local drive of any platform (linux, windows, mac) and synchronize it with my web server, which will then update my DB. Local xml file path is predefined and stored in my DB. This is part 1.Part 2, I will have to update the sync(ed) xml and replace the file on my local drive.Part 1 and part 2 will execute in sequence when the user click on a "Sync" button after logged in.Here is what I plan to use, PHP, MySQL, Javascript.What I know so far.1. Due to security reasons we cannot dynamically update the value of the input file type. So setting the known file location is not possible.I will like to know if there is anyway we can upload/read & overwrite a xml file without any middleware like adobe air that needs to be pre-installed to any of the platform to achieve what I plan to do?

Use Client Side .js File To Load A Local .html File?
May 18, 2009I have a .js file, we want to make it to load a html file right next to it, both files are on client system. I couldn't find any such examples and some posts talked about JavaScript security issues, I wonder if it is related to what I want.
Someone said .js file is not really JaveScript file, though Microsoft named it 'JavaScript'.
note that I am trying to "call" .html file from the .js file, not embed html code in .js.

How To Open Local File From Webpage
Sep 4, 2008I have web page where user can upload file. He can select which file to upload with standard HTML input of type file. I want to add this feature: when user select some file (e.g. picture, pdf etc.) in file select dialog, I want to add link to selected local file. When user click on it browser(maybe associated application) should open local file so user can review what he selected. I was experimenting with urls with "file" protocol but it works only with html file located on local computer not for one on web server. I found that this is because of security restriction in browsers.

Parsing Javascript From Local Html File
Jan 11, 2007For a project I am working on, I need to retrieve links from html
documents. The easy part is to obtain 'plain' links like <A
HREF="http://site/path/document">, but when those links are
javascript'ized, the only robust solution needs to load the javascript
and dom document representation in the same way that browsers do. For
example, links in the form:
<A HREF="javascript:function_declared_before("arguments"));>
First I though that using spidermonkey (the mozilla javascript
interpreter) should be enough, but in that case, I dont have the
document structure elements (like document, window, document.history,
document.form.element, etc), so I tried parsing the document using a
library to build a tree representation of it, but that leads me to the
same problem again, that is, I have to represent all tree nodes as
javascript entities.
Anybody here have worked on a similar problem? What tools do you
think I should take a look?
JQuery :: Ajax Request To Local XML File?
Jun 7, 2010I'm busy making a project which needs to be ran locally. It has to work on Firefox only.
I've ran into the problem I can't load local XML files from another directory then the html file is located.
When I try loading XML trough an ajax request with the url "content.xml" everything works fine. As soon as I want the XML to be loaded from another folder, e.g. "../../../content.xml" it doesnt enter my success function.

Get Local .txt File Contents Into Scirpt Array?
Dec 17, 2009I am working on a project involving the Google Maps api. I have an application that spits out a text file with lat/lng coordinates plus some other info. I'm trying to figure out how to get the data from the local text file into a javascript array that can then be used by the Google Map api to create the map.
Any suggestions on how to go about doing this? I'm fairly certain that there is not a way to do it just with Javascript, but I thought I would ask. If not, any suggestions on how to do it, perhaps with xmlhttprequest and a PHP script? I don't need the text file to actually be saved on the web server, but if that's the only option then I can go that route.

View 4 Replies View RelatedPopulate Listboxes From Local XML File Without Security Warning....
May 24, 2007I have been trawling everywhere, I cannot find a solution anywhere for the following:
I need a webpage with two list boxes and a text box, I want the two listboxes to be dynamic/cascading (the second dependant upon the choice in the first).
And the textbox dependant upon the selection from the second listbox.
This data has to come from a XML file stored on the local PC or Network drive.
Most importantly I do not want the user of the page to be prompted with the activeX warning.
The PC's are secure so I cannot tweak the reg, it gotta work completely with XML, XSL, Javascript etc only Can this be done if so please can someone post a simple example.
Open XML File On Local Machine With HTML Page
Dec 1, 2010I need to be able to search through an xml located on my local machine with an html page. Here's the thing: this whole system (html files, xml file) will always be on my local machine. Because it's a class project it won't be on a server. So here's the scenario: I navigate to where my files are located (say C:) and I double click my index.html page and this page opens in my browser and from this page I need to be able to search my xml file which is at the same location. I've tried xmlhttprequest and it won't open the xml file I'm guessing because I don't need an http request.
Here's what I have so far:
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
} else {
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} xmlhttp.open("GET","C:MovieDB.xml",false);
xmlhttp.send(); xmlDoc=xmlhttp.responseXML;
function searchDB() {
if(!xmlDoc){
alert("error")
} var keyword = $('#txtBox').val();
var searchVal = $('#basicCategory :selected').text();
var allitems = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("Movie");
for(var i=0;i<allitems.length;i++){
alert(allitems[i].getElementsByTagName(searchVal[0].
childNodes[0].nodeValue);
} }
The code doesn't make it past the xmlhttp.send() line.

JQuery :: Loading From Local File System For Offline Usage
Apr 11, 2010I'm having an issue getting jQuery to load from a local file system. My head links are:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.3.2.min"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.scrollTo-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.localscroll-min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="shadowbox-3.0.3/shadowbox.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/myscripts.js"></script>
This works fine when served from my server via http. However, I want to load this entire site (including all linked js/css files) from a local filesystem for offline usage. When I move the project to a local filesystem, the browser throws a bunch of errors from the secondary scripts (like jquery-ui) which indicate that the main jQuery lib isn't loading (ie.ReferenceError: Can't find variable: $). This behavior is consistent across IE7/FF3/Safari4Mac.
