Unfortunatly javascript can't access the filesystem so it can't get

to use Java (not javascript, totally different). It's a permissions

Library should be compatible with Firefox (Lin, Win, Mac), IE and
Safary.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion(s).

In fact you can access the filesystem with "signed" javascript scripts.
Which by "signing" you Javascript, you will be allowed to access the
local file system.
But, again, it is all about the permissions.
Jim
Actually no. Javascript doesn't allow for client's FS access for
security reasons, as noted before.
What you're probably talking about is IE's proprietary implementation
and the use of COM objects (and there goes the security), but Andrei
says the solution should be cross-browser, so this doesn't look like an
option.
