Reading a file

[hysterio]

Is it possible to read a file on a server with client-side code? and i know you can do it with ActiveXObject "Scripting.FileSystemObject", but that one seemed to be blocked on my internet provider

JavaScript has a not-quite-standard HTTPRequest object that should serve. Give these a look:
