I have a software installed on each of my clients computer , the software defines new protocol named when my client invoke the protocol form the browser the software will run in there computer and perform some file transfer operation.

for example if a client issued LPL://-s 109.107.108.7 -f c:\tmp\file.big in the browser the software will run and will transfer file.big to the server.

now i have a problem in locating the full file path in the client side , I understood that modern browsers prevent getting the full path for security reasons , however i need to read the files content of my client using web .

Is there a work around to solve this issuse

  • You can't do that - _"But I need to!"_ - oh now you can... No, this is not possible from a web browser. Try searching. If you really, really must and you can control the clients, either use a Flash/Silverlight/Java applet or a Desktop app. – CodeCaster Nov 03 '15 at 14:43
  • ok , is there a way to create or get a fake path to reach the content so i can upload it with my software? – Sizar AL Adam Nov 03 '15 at 14:49
