Is impossible to use to use the "file open dialog" / file uploader to browse files from server. You can create a dialog inside your browser with (html,css,php).

Is difficult to give an example, because I do not know your requirements. However you have to use two buttons, it will be easier:

  1. upload from your computer

  2. upload from the server

On click "upload from the server" , opens a window IN BROWSER (HTML+CSS) , that lists your folders and files on the server. To implement this , read here:
