Javascript file read write programming

S

Simon Wigzell

I recently wrote a program with MS Visual Studio C++, sent it off to the
client where it didn't run, after some probing I discover they are on a Mac!
I've used bits of javascript developingwebpages and it has a very C like
syntax. My program is a MSF interface that is really only 2 File buttons
with corresponding text fields, easy enough to do in HTML. The actual guts
of the program is a C file that accepts 2 file names as arguments and reads
from one file, manipulates the string and writes it to another file. So I'm
thinking of "porting" the program to an HTML page that would run locally on
their Mac. Any thought on this? Is javascript file read/write capable?
Surely there are security issues involved to prevent reading and writing to
a client computer? Yet a brief search on "javascript file read write" does
turn up some results. Maybe I need to go to full Java instead. Anyone know
of a simple and free Java interface builder and compiler? Any other ideas or
suggestions? Thanks!
