Answer 1

This is how to read a file using dart:html.

document.querySelector('#myinputelement`).onChange.listen((changeEvent) {
    List fileInput = document.querySelector('#myinputelement').files;

    if (fileInput.length > 1) {
        // More than one file got selected somehow, could be a browser bug.
        // Unless the "multiple" attribute is set on the input element, of course
    }
    else if (fileInput.isEmpty) {
        // This could happen if the browser allows emptying an upload field
    }

    FileReader reader = new FileReader();
    reader.onLoad.listen((fileEvent) {
          String fileContent = reader.result;
          // Code doing stuff with fileContent goes here!
    });

    reader.onError.listen((itWentWrongEvent) {
          // Handle the error
    });

    reader.readAsText(fileInput[0]);
});
