ActiveXObject in Firefox or Chrome (not IE!)

Tags:

I am trying to create an ActiveXObject (to use FieSystemObject) but it's only supported in IE.

Is there a way I can make it work in Chrome or FF? I need to read all the files in a specific given folder, and list those.

Well, is there another way to do it?

Can I use ActiveXObject?

ActiveXObject is non-standard and only supported by Internet Explorer on Windows. There is no native cross browser way to write to the file system without using plugins, even the draft File API gives read only access.

ActiveX is only supported by IE - the other browsers use a plugin architecture called NPAPI. However, there's a cross-browser plugin framework called Firebreath that you might find useful.
