Is there anyway I could javascript or just modify the html5 file input tag to select files from my web server? this is a content management kind of problem so security is not an issue, and if possible i would like to restrict it to a particular directory in the web server. Am not trying to upload or download anything, I already have a way of uploading the files to the web server, am just looking for a way to point to them if you will. Thanks in advance

    You can change the browse path with javascript.. Like: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9068156/server-side-file-browsing – q0re Sep 05 '13 at 12:52

    The clientside can not see anything on the serverside. You need to build something that sends the data down to the client to render. – epascarello Sep 05 '13 at 12:57

    That's not possible with the native browser control. You should write your own. – Krasimir Sep 05 '13 at 13:04
