File Handling and Javascript

[S Mithal]

I am trying to display some information about a file on my local directory in an html page using javascript. Is there a way to do so without using ActiveXObject objects as this solution is browser specific. I am using this for now:

function getFileSize()
{
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
fileObj = fso.GetFile("myFile");
return fileObj.Size;
}

TIA

No, for security reasons, native JavaScript has no access to the client file system. Thank goodness.
