Loading file content in IFRAME

[Mani]

I have a file browse dialog and an IFRAME on my web page. User will
select an RTF file using the file browse dialog and I need to load the
contents of that file in IFRAME so that the user could edit the same.

Any ideas how do I populate the contents of a file into IFRAME?

Unless the page is being run locally you are going to run into a
security issue by trying to load a file:// protocol into an IFrame
running from an http:// protocol.

<a href="file_1.rtf" target="myIframe">file 1</a>
<iframe name="myIframe" ... ></iframe>

Not possible using tag 'input type=file' to display a file from user's
DD if your page is on a server (reason of security).
