HTML file open dialog to access server file system

Is is possible to have file open dialog box for displaying files and directories which is in server file system? I have a requirement in my web application where the user should select a file which is available in server.

Do we have any plugin for this or can it be possible using < input type="file" > component. Is it possible to achieve this, since when I googled I dint get any information. Please help me out. Any suggestions will be really appreciated.

You can do it with ASP.Net... all you need is file system permissions and a simple file browser in a web page, and you can also rename files using the System.IO namespace. Through ASP.Net you can read and modify files on the server. But using JavaScript you will have limited access.

Your application can request a list of files from a server. And a dialog box you can make youself.
