Have you read through this: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Code_snippets/File_I%2F%2FO

There is a sample code for reading a file line-by-line.  Although it's
use is cautioned against due to performance issues, I have been using
it in an app locally and have seen no problems.  Your mileage may
vary.

Also, the example is for reading ASCII only.  If you are working with
files containing non-ASCII characters, you might want to read through
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Reading_textual_data as well.

Hope this helps.
