<div>
are you executing it as a browser script or as a window script?<br />
<br />
if you are using javascript to run as a window script, it's possible, you can hook it up w/ Scripting.FileSystemObject<wbr /> Active X object to access file system.<br />

if you are using javascript to run as a window script, it's possible, you can hook it up w/ Scripting.FileSystemObject Active X object to access file system.


<div>
JavaScript runs in a environment called &quot;sandbox&quot; this means, that JavaScript is execute inside the browser. It is not possible to accesses resources (i.e the filesystem)on the client machine outside this sandbox.<br />
What PBall stated out ir correct, but not clear.<br />
JavaScript can not access ActiveX. A Language called JScript from MS can access Active-X objects. But this bound to windows. It depends on the system configuration whether the execution of Active-X Controls is possible or not. <br />

File Manipulation using javascript

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.
