Server image download in a client machine folder - javascript

Server image should be download in a local client machine in a particular path
using javascript or jquery.
Is there any way to download the image in a particular path where we cannot use server side script?

With only js and jquery it is not possible. Maybe with a browser extension it can be possible. But with js and jquery you dont have ability to write local machine.

Silent dowload using jQuery and Javascript

How can I make an HTML page and have it do a silent(!!) download of a file to a path on my Windows machine?
I want that, as soon as my Windows computer goes to this web page, it to automatically download the file of my choosing from my server to C:\Program Files, for example. This would be all on my private network.
So my aim is, if I have a file called target on the server, to download it to C:\Program Files, all through this webpage.
How can I accomplish this?
I have something like the following in mind:
Download Here
$('a').click... //Some jquery to download the file
I'd prefer to do it just with HTML and Javascript, since I'm not so fluent in jQuery.
Thanks in advance guys :)

What is the best way to serve large javascript file libraries from a server with a slow upstream?

I want to put a webserver on my raspberry pi, but its upload speed is slow and I have a webpage with a big script (angular.js).
I could use a CDN for angular.js, but my ISP is not perfect, and I want to be able to serve the file even when the outside Internet is unavailable.
What is the best way to make the browser use one script when my network is connected to the rest of the Internet, but use another when the outside Internet is unavailable?
Save the contents of the file in Local Storage then use Javascript to insert the code for the file on to the web page.
Either that or use cache-control headers.

file access from javascript code

I'm trying to access a text file using javascript code, but I keep receiving a security error message. What I'm trying to do is:
var file = File('path/filename.txt');
The path is relative to the script location. I found that running from local machine could be the reason for that, so I tried to run from my local webserver but the error is still there. Does someone know why? What can I do to load this text file? If possible, considering that it is always under the script path, could it be also loaded from local disk (no web server)?
Thank you.
If you're trying to access a file on the server, you should do it using a server side coding language like PhP.
If you're trying to access a client file (= a file on the computer of your website visitor), it's not possible for obvious security reasons [EDIT] Thanks to Colin DeClue , I discovered this is possible using the HTML5 File API. An article explaining this is available here : http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/file/dndfiles/
Your snippet will attempt to load the file from your local file system, so can't retrieve a file from a server. You'd need to look at requestFileSystem or FileReader to make something like this work if the file is local.
Alternatively, you could use AJAX to retrieve the file from a server.

file upload from local machine on local machine

Is it possible to upload a file from a local machine to the same local machine using JavaScript and/or server technology? The scenario was I had to get a image file from local , do manipulations/ cropping and then save it on that local machine. my website is hosted in another country.
You would need to upload the file to your server, using a normal file upload. After you have performed the manipulations you would provide a link for the user to download the file.
You cannot force the download back to local storage, the user has to accept the download.
Just use ImageMagick on the file itself, most hosting servers support it.
Maybe this helps:

You can download data, but you can't save anything to the local file system with javascript. This is impossible.
