javascript - Generate list from file directory -


i'm trying create mock media player - extremely basic youtube, allows user select video list, , plays in embedded player.

so far i've got video player playing videos list, have manually edit list if changes, rather getting updated automatically - want.

the file structure have is:

dest/     index.html     favicon.png     video/         movie.mp4         rabbit.mp4 

and want user able choose between movie.mp4 , rabbit.mp4 files (and rest added when it's being used - of don't know names of).

i've read it's not possible javascript access files - security reasons. makes sense me when dealing user's files, not same directory html in! when want read-only access. if in fact not possible - seems - let me know think fastest way this?

<input type="file" multiple/> doesn't work me need use specific directory, not user selected one.

i using html , javascript, , due limitations on target machine, cannot use php. i'd rather avoid server stuff if @ possible. i've never used jquery or ajax, if it's necessary can give go (although don't know if they're available either).

thanks, adam
