javascript thread: Showing file contents in a window

Not knowing the environment you have... here is one possible solution.

If the cd rom is on a web server (IIS).  Put the rom in and make a virtual
web out of the drive.  Then you will be able to view the contents with a web
browser.

Subject: [javascript] Showing file contents in a window


Hi,

I am trying to show the contents of a CD-Rom in an IE browser window and 
cannot find a way of doing this using JavaScript. Is there anyone out 
there who has managed to perform this function? If so, I would love to 
hear from you. I, also, cannot find a way of displaying any file contents 
in a window even if the file is saved in the same directory as my HTML 
page.

Regards, Stephen
