Find the contents of a directory

Is it possible to get the contents of a dire开发者_JAVA百科ctory with javascript?

Not really because of security reasons. You are trying to access client's file system !!

Note: There is FSO (File System Object) but to my knowledge it only works in IE.

No, not with JavaScript that runs within a browser sandbox.

Assuming you mean JavaScript running inside a web browser, then no.

If you are running from somewhere else, (e.g. cscript.exe from a Windows command line, or ASP server side) then yes.

Which scenario are you referring to?
