    <h3>Working with file-input</h3>
    <p>This example let's you select an image from your local filesystem. QuaggaJS then tries to decode the barcode using
        the preferred method (<strong>Code128</strong>, <strong>EAN
        </strong>, <strong>Code 39</strong> or <strong>Codabar</strong>)
                There is no server interaction needed as the file is simply
                accessed through the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/file-upload/">File API</a>.</p>
    <p>This also works great on a wide range of mobile-phones where the camera access through <code>getUserMedia</code> is still very limited.</p>
