My intention is to burn images into a CD along with a HTML file and
AutoRun instruction to start the HTML file. The HTML file would
contain a JavaScript that would read the directory contents
(recursively, if required) and show the images on the browser in a
slideshow manner.
I spent a couple of hours searching for sample script to do something
similar, found several, but they all are designed to show the images
saved on the Web server.
Does JavaScript support local disk reading? Remember, the HTML came
from local disk. I spent some time on Netscape's JavaScript manual
site looking for some statement/function for directory services, and
found nothing.
Does the slideshow program I am looking for already exist? If not, I
can attempt to write one myself if I can figure out how to search the
local directory.
Thank you.
