I could probably/def read a text file with javascript by embedding some ruby in there but I want to know how to do it with javascript. My code follows:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>"Text File"</TITLE>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = JAVASCRIPT>
function handleFile() {
var myFile = document.getElementById('txtF')
var fileContents = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(myFile);
document.form1.textfield.value=fileContents;
}
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<input type="file" id="aFile" name="txtF"/>
<form name="form1">
<input type="text" name="textfield" value="">
</form>
<input type="button" value="Read File" onclick="handleFile();">
<!-- <button onclick="loadTxtDoc('textfile.txt')">Click</button> //-->
</BODY>
</HTML>what am I doing wrong?
