I’m writing an application that runs on Firefox 3.6.3 for internal use only.
I would like to be able to update the contents on the page based on a file on my computer.
What is the easiest way to achieve this ?
I understood from other posts here that I must upload the file to the web server and then return the contents back to the browser. Do I have any other options ?
The file can be pretty big. Is there any limitation on file size that can be transmitted from server to browser ?
From security reasons you can’t get access to file system from web page. Are you sure that web application is best choice for you task? may be you need desktop application?
