read out attributes of a folder or file

[Martin Huber]

Hello Newsgroup,

I want to make a javascript application, that reads out the directorys
on my hard disk and show in a checkbox if a folder is read- or
writeable. So I can change attributes on an easy and fast way.

My problem is, that I don´t know how to read out the read- and
writeable attributes.

Thank you

Martin

Think "sandbox security" and then ask yourself if rooting around in the
file system is something that security protocols should let you do.
