[Javascript] client side file i/o

[Vadiraj C S]

  I've tried all the possibilities, nothing seems to work even
with signed script.

  The scripts throws
JavaScript Error: uncaught Java exception
netscape/security/ForbiddenTargetException("User didn't grant the  
UniversalFileRead privilege.")

IF I use netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege(["targetName"])

  it gives permission denied if I dont use this.

> textToBeWritten = oRequest.responseText;
>
> document.write(textToBeWritten);

  This also gives the same error.

  I've referred this link,
   http://developer.netscape.com/viewsource/goodman_sscripts.html

  could any find some solution on this?

  Thanks in advance.
