Local image in chrome canvas

Chrome access to local files is limited, but I would like to draw an image on the canvas: the image selected with the file input and not sending the image to the server, and then requesting it back.

Some help would be great!

Since you use Google Chrome, files: // URIs cannot read other files: // URIs. If you use this for development, you can add the following command line switch in chrome:

--allow-file-access-from-files

HTML5 has (is currently under development) a file system API , you can read an example here: http://www.html5rocks.com/tutorials/file/filesystem/
