Accessing files on the local system from the browser

Question

Accessing File system from browser is not a good practice and can be implemented according to my knowledge.

 

But, can we by any means do that, i need to open files that resides on the local directory (using the browser from my web application) .

 

Can we do that using HTML5, js or any scripting or server side language? Is there any workaround?

Can we call a console application that open that file using the suitable application from the browser? 

Answer 1

You could prefix/postfix the Name with es_ and so on.

 

Please reconsider, using multiple files is much easier to use and maintain.
