Invoke C# code from JavaScript in a Document in a WebBrowser

Not sure that this would be possible with the WinForms browser control, but I would like to somehow setup a hook or callback that I can define a function from C# to javascript, when the javascript calls that function I would like it to execute a C# method. A simple example would be that I am writing a web application and running it inside a C# WinForms native client (so it appears to be a real windows program.) I need to expose file i/o and directory iteration methods to the Javascript so that my web application can access the file system without needing to load any additional java applets or flash.

Please note I am not requesting third party libraries that would expose this functionality, I am asked for resources or an explanation on how I can create this and any other functionality that I might need.

`WebBrowser.ObjectForScripting` looks like what you need, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.webbrowser.objectforscripting.aspx – Mark Coleman Jan 24 '13 at 18:19
