File processing before sending in the client side)

[bryu1]

Hello,

I'm trying to find a way for a web page to do some file processing in
the client side before sending it to a server. Is there a way to do
that in php (or in some other language)?

Thanks
Gnurto.

PHP is server-side. That is, it runs on the server.

JavaScript is client-side. It runs on the client.

You're stuck with Javascript.

If we are talking about browser, then there is no such facility as you
are asking due to security, you may need to to process it entirely on
the server.

However, depending on your situation you have several options:

.. browser plugin (e.g. web based antivirus on antivirus.com)
.. Firefox extension (?)
.. disable security on your IE and it may allow FileSystemObject
.. Java
.. custom HTTP client
