Find the contents of a directory

Question

Is it possible to get the contents of a directory with javascript?

Answer 1

Not really because of security reasons. You are trying to access client's file system !!

Note: There is FSO (File System Object) but to my knowledge it only works in IE.

Answer 2

No, not with JavaScript that runs within a browser sandbox.
