Can a website (HTML5,JavaScript) access a mobile device's (android/iPhone)
contact list, SDCard files?
A website as in one opened in a browser not a phonegap application/webapp.
There was an attempt at the W3C to create a browser API to access contacts from the browser. This is often mentioned as one of the new HTML5 APIs.
However the attempt never became a real specification and never got implemented by any browser vendors. Now it is officially discontinued:

You can't access the mobile device file system through a website, it would be a major security problem. You might be able to steal all user files if you can access them through the browser. Hope this helps.
