It's not going to work.You have no permissions to read files with javascript from the browser. The only way to deal with it is to create an input[type=file] tag and add onChange event to it. For example:

document.getElementById('fileupload').addEventListener('change', function (e) {
  var files = e.target.files;
  //proceed your files here
  reader.readAsText(files[0]);
}, false);
