Is it possible to read a file in from a path in JavaScript and create a byte[] of that file?

    There are two forms of JavaScript: client-side and server-side. In client-side JavaScript it is not possible, while in server-side JavaScript, it is possible. So it depends on whether you are using client-side or server-side JavaScript.

    That said, client-side JavaScript is much more common and if you were using server-side JavaScript, you would probably know the answer to your question. So I'm going to go out on a limb and say that no, it is not possible to read in from a path in JavaScript and create a byte[] from that file.

    (Also, it's unclear what you mean by a byte[]; that's not a common notation when using JavaScript. Are you sure you aren't talking about Java? Java is completely different from JavaScript: in Java byte[] is a more common notation.)

    You guys seem to have completely forgotten mobile platforms and javascript designed to run with no-security flags set what-so-ever. I access my files just fine in my javascript code, which runs on my iPhone. You just cant access the users filesystem, only your own filesystem which is basically a folder isolated from the rest of the system.

    Sp his question was perfectly valid. Also - you should look up Javascript blobs (binary large objects) and typed arrays. You can allocate "normal" byte, word and longword arrays in JS - but people rarely use them.

    Yes, you can — in Firefox, anyway. Other browsers may or may not choose to allow it in the future.

    Make a file upload field for the user to pick the file, and read it through the input.files list. eg. document.getElementById('myuploadfield').files[0].getAsBinary(). This puts each byte in a single character of a JavaScript String, which is about as close to a byte[] as you're going to get.

    This is quite a specialized interface and probably Not The Right Thing — heed the other replies, because it's very possible you are trying to do something in a inappropriate way. Difficult to tell without context.

    File I/O in Javascript is considered a serious security risk:

    No. JavaScript is purposely designed to have very minimal file IO (think cookies) because allowing it to access arbitrary files (local and remote) would be a massive security risk.
