It appears that Mozilla's version of XMLHTTP, the XMLHttpRequest object, is vulnerable to the exact same attack. XMLHttpRequest is a JavaScript object that was designed by Microsoft, adopted by Mozilla, and is now being standardized in the W3C. Netscape was informed on 24 Apr 2002 through a security form on their web site and later on through email.

The general idea is that a user can log in to a service, and using that login information, I can then create an individual folder for the user. It provides an easy way to retrieve data at a URL. Despite its name, XMLHttpRequest can be used to retrieve any type of data, not just XML, and it supports connections other than HTTP (including file and ftp).

I use an element array to send multiple files because it makes it easy to reference each file and send the data in one step. Here's the HTML code that is used in conjunction with the JavaScript. I also found that the onreadystatechange callback function should test the readyState variable otherwise your function gets called for each state change rather than just when it has completed loading the file.This code does several things. First, it checks to see if the filename is specified in the query string.

xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState==4) { callback(xmlhttp.responseText); } }
