Html5 File Upload

We'll start off with the basics. Examining how to use the HTML file input form element to allow users to select files and retrieve information about them such as their name, size, and mind type. We'll also see how to use the HTML5 file reader API to provide features like progress information, cancel-able read actions and reading just particular portions of individual files.So if you're ready to see how the HTML5 file API can give your web apps a native flair, then let's get started with HTML5 File API in Depth.

Api Tutorial Point

Please note that Filesystem API is no longer part of the standard's specification, as specified at:EDIT:Quoting the specification in case the link changes:'File API: Directories and SystemW3C Working Group Note 24 April 2014Work on this document has been discontinued and it should not be referenced or used as a basis for implementation.' (This does not relate to the question directly, but it is essential to know not to use the FileSystem API further.)Another link:'In April 2014, it was announced on public-webapps that the Filesystem API spec should be considered dead. Other browsers have showed little interest in implementing it.'
