I'm trying to make a website where a user can choose a directory from his/her pc. Then i want to get a full directory tree from that point. So that i can process the filenames. It's not necessary to upload anything. Just the filenames are enough.
The closest thing i have seen is the upload procedure on http://www.connect.garmin.com.
When you plug in your gps and click on upload. The site gives you a full list of files that can be uploaded from your gps and whether or not you have already uploaded it.
How can this be done? PHP, javascript or a plugin in python?
it looks like there are a few people that had the same question that you did, here is a Link to a blog that I found on another Question on SO
HTML5 Upload Blog
here is the SO Question I found it on
Html 5 File upload
there is a lot of information on that blog that is very useful and I think that you will find everything that you are asking there.
Most of the File Browsing is done by the clients Web Browser so you won't have to worry about coding the actual pop up window. you just have to give the browser the type of files that you are looking for.

i am writing a web application with React, where users can write protocolls for their appointments. The current system is: the web application saves the word file in the local file system, the user edits it and uploads it via a macro in word.
That seems a bit clunky to me and i am not so sure about the security issues of letting the browser directly access the local file system.
So i wanted to let the users edit the files directly via the browser, with an editor similar to GoogleDocs.
Problem is:
Documents have to remain on premis
Converting doc files to a format that can be displayed in a browser and back seems to have some formating issues.
The user must be able to download the file and edit it, in case they have an appointment without internet access and upload it later. So it has to be at least convertable to a document that can be easily edited in Word.
There are so many richtext editor, but from what ive seen none is designed for that use-case. So my question is: Is what i want to do even possible, and if so does anyone know a good editor or library for doing so?
I'm using Lynch at my work place. But none of us was able to save the convo history in outlook as expected.
Basically when I close the conversation window, all history is lost.
After some search, I found that the convo history is actually stored in local files under:
C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Communicator\sip_user#domain\History Spooler
and there's a bunch of files with .hist extension, containing a "weird" header and the conversation in HTML format.
Is there any software to read/access those files in a "clean" way?
That said, I found Lync SDK but it's to be used server side.
I don't have access to the server, nor any network resources. Just local .hist files.
Till now, I was able to open those files in a browser, by renaming them to .html(with some garbage at top of page due to the "weird" header).
Next step was to write some code, in order to parse those files, as asked here: How can I read a Lync conversation file containing HTML?
but not much came out of it.
This is temporary solution to view lync history under you mentioned path
C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Communicator\sip_user#domain\History Spooler.
You need to change .hist to .HTML format. After double click the .html file. Now you are able to see the proper chat data.
I have a requirement where my app records the video files and stores them in app's documents directory. I want no other app should access these files other that my app. I have set file sharing enabled to NO. But I see some apps like iExplorer can show the video files saved under my app's documents directory. Can I know how this can be avoided.
I have also heard that by mounting the iOS device disk to any unix/linux machine can list out all the contents of the app sandbox.
So I want to know how to prevent this happening.
I tried with adding NSFileProtectionComplete as a attribute when saving the file. But this didn't solve the problem. Please help me on this.
Thanks,
I realize this is a little old but in the hopes of helping the next person who stumbles upon this:
You're probably looking for an encryption solution, combined with the standard steps for hiding your app documents folder as you've mentioned. Encryption won't necessarily hide the files but it will make them unreadable.
NSFileProtectionComplete only encrypts files when the device is locked. See the App Programming Guide for iOS section Protecting Data Using On-Disk Encryption. Also, keep in mind that when testing this, you'll have to wait 10-20 seconds after the device is locked before trying to verify that the file is inaccessible. If you want the encryption to persist past that point you'll have to handle it yourself. Something along what's described in this SO post perhaps.
I'm a new user on box.net site and I've uploaded A LOT of .zip files that I want to use in my project.
The problem is that, normally, the share link is something like: box.net/1.zip .. so I can predict that the 100th file will be box.net/100.zip ... but this is not the case in box.net..
I cant obviously copy every files link manually since what I uploaded and need is ~1000 small .zip files and copying each files link will take ages.
So is there a way to fix this?
We recently released a new feature, where you can give your share a custom name. See the blog entry for more details on how to use it.
Right now, we have not exposed an API to set these custom links, but that will be coming soon.
I'm using the CMS Made Simple platform; which I'm not very familiar with!
The site has a secure frontend, which contains a document library for members. Files are stored outside the document root and links are generated by the CMS so you should only be able to get the documents if you're logged in.
At first glance the setup works fine; however certain PDFs uploaded in this fashion are corrupt upon download, and line endings in text files aren't preserved.
Sorry if this is a bit vague, I'm hoping someone has come across a similar problem but any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Rich
You should check which module/tag is handling the download / upload.
Are you sure they´re intact when uploaded?
Check for headers, and content size calculation, try different browsers and different methods to force the download.
