This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.
The read-only webkitEntries property of the HTMLInputElement interface contains an array of file system entries (as objects based on FileSystemEntry) representing files and/or directories selected by the user using an <input> element of type file.
The array can only contain directories if the webkitdirectory property is true. This means the <input> element was configured to let the user choose directories.
This property is called webkitEntries in the specification due to its origins as a Google Chrome-specific API. It's likely to be renamed someday.
Syntax
var entries = HTMLInputElement.webkitEntries;
Value
An array of objects based on FileSystemEntry, each representing one file which is selected in the <input> element. More specifically, files are represented by FileSystemFileEntry objects, and, if they're allowed, directories are represented by FileSystemDirectoryEntry objects.
Example
This example shows how to create a file selection <input> element and process the selected files.
HTML
<input id="files" type="file" multiple>
JavaScript
document.getElementById("files").addEventListener("change", function(event) {
event.target.webkitEntries.forEach(function(entry) {
/* do stuff with the entry */
});
});
Each time a change event occurs, this code iterates over the selected files, obtaining their FileSystemEntry-based objects and acting on them.
