Monitoring a change in a file
Is there a way I can monitor a change in a file using javascript without using the polling technique (i.e. check some attribute of the file continuously)...? Basically, I want to know if I can trigger an action if a file has been changed in the disk.

In the future we will have 'comet', but until then I don't know any way.

Well, the usage of JS on local files is very restricted.
