I hear that Firefox 3.6 adds support for the HTML local file API (Announcement here).
Does this mean that I can access local files from javascript?
Can anyone point me to examples for reading / writing local files?
I would love to be able to read / write simple text files.
The only files you can access are files dropped from the desktop or files that has been selected from an
<input/>tag. See the demo I’ve written here: http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/12/uploading-files-with-xmlhttprequest/
