I need a way to get all the images from a local folder for a presentation that will also run locally. There will be no attempt for a server to take the images from a local f
Thanks to Patrick Hofman's answer, I modified the code and ended up with this :
$(document).ready(function(){
function readMultipleFiles(evt) {
//Retrieve all the files from the FileList object
var files = evt.target.files;
if (files) {
for (var i=0, f; f=files[i]; i++) {
var r = new FileReader();
r.onload = (function(f) {
return function(e) {
var contents = e.target.result;
$('body').append('' + f.name + '
');
};
})(f);
r.readAsText(f);
}
} else {
alert("Failed to load files");
}
}
document.getElementById('fileinput').addEventListener('change', readMultipleFiles, false);
});
