    JavaScript doesn't support the reading and writing of files.

    Even if it were on the server? I'm sure there's some way, maybe involving more than javascript, because I once saw someone's solution to server side includes on a server that does not have ASP by using javascript to read the contents of a text file and write them to a document...
