Not in a browser on internet,
because the clientside HDD is forbidden ground.

Yes, but not for a standard internet application.
An HTA can do this. MSIE/Windows only.
There is no way for a standard internet application.

<input type="file" size=50"> will produce the browse button
and browse text box.
The user can either select the file from browse button,
or enter a path in browse text box manually. My question is if
there are any client-side code to check if the path exists
in this case? My understanding is that no client-side
solution to this problem.
please advise. thanks!!

What is the best way to check if a file already exists in the current
directory? I saw os.path.isfile(), but I'm not sure if that does more
than what I need.
I just want to check if a file of a certain name exists before the user
creates a new file of that name.
Thanks.

I have a function that downloads a file to the users computer and it works
fine.
The problem is that I then want the program to rename the file (file.move)
to the same name plus todays date.
The problem is that when you run the program it gets to the:
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" +
file.Name)

Hi All,
I noticed if file path has a white space, for example "C:\my document
\test.txt", the function File.Exists(filePath) always return false in
release mode. How could I make this function work for the file which
is located in a direcotry with a white space?
Thanks!

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
