    javascript cannot do this. In addition to lack of implementation, there are all kinds of security reasons for browsers to actively *prevent* javascript from accessing the user’s filesystem.

    Depending on your goal, you might look into using one of the [HTML5 Storage APIs](http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/offline/storage/).
