The only way a session in your browser can access ANY resource from
the server is by firing off a new request - either a full page
request, or an Ajax request.

You probably want Ajax.Request (or Ajax.Updater if you're going to
display the file in your page); and  you need to write a server script
which will respond to the Ajax request and send the file contents.
