Check for a file using Javascript??

[fkn]

I need a script that checks for a certain file and makes a redirect based upon the result.

If the file c:\temp\test.txt does not exist then the browser opens another page.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry, no can do!

One of the security restrictions of javascript is that it cannot have access to local files. This is to stop malicious scripts from reading private information (e.g. password files, bank details, etc) or writing stuff and damaging the system.

Ok. Thanks anyway...
