I have tried extensively to find an answer to this question. Hopefully someone will be able to put my mind at ease.

Is it possible to use client-side javascript to get a list of files from a folder?

This computer is not connected to the internet or any other computer. The browser just needs to be able to see in a folder and make an array from its contents at certain intervals. This is w XP/MCE.

I have been trying to use the getfolder function with a newActiveXObject but have not gotten it to work and I am not even certain it works client-side.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
