There is any way (from browser) to read local file without open dialog?
Can be used: javascript, flash, or java.
Goal: when you paste text in WYSIWYG with images from MS Word, there will be links to image files. Like “file:///C:/Users/username/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image001.jpg”. I want to read this files, upload to server and replace local path.
Accessing the disk contents from the browser without the user permission is a security risk. As such, to do that with Java you need your applet signed and the user allowing it to run.
