Locally Downloaded Website Does Not Allow Uploading of a File #38

Downloading all the code and running locally doesn't work, whereas using the live website does work.

The specific issue seen with the local website is after clicking on "Choose your Messages File" and selecting a text file, nothing occurs. Whereas, on the live website, it will show the filename with file information, and a button to "Show data".

I've tried this on Windows 7 and Windows 10, using both Chrome and Firefox browsers.

Good catch, I think I shouldn't have changed the javascript files to modules in last commit, as modules don't load from local js files for security reasons. I'll try to patch this soon, but until then you can checkout the previous commit (after running git clone ..., run git checkout 98fc0da4cfb68e6b0a3f0c5072fdc1b41924fd5c), and things should work again.
