Re: Read and access data and write file in directory

First, you cannot directly write a client-side file in JavaScript.
The primary design goal of the HTML file input widget is for the user
to select a file, which is then uploaded to a servlet for processing
on the server. For a high level overview of the process, search this
forum for fileupload, for example:

Second, the c:\fakepath\ thing is a security feature, originally
implemented in Opera and IE8, but now an official W3C standard. You
can read the background here:

http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/number-state.html#file-upload-state

You might also want to review the File API, which allows for client-
side reading (not writing) of files selected by the user in a
fileupload widget.

http://www.w3.org/TR/FileAPI/
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/using_files_from_web_applications

If your ultimate goal is to deliver a file to the client, you'll need
to get there in a roundabout way, by making the file available for the
user to download:
