For security reasons, JavaScript cannot write to files.

If you want to store data on the client's computer, you may store cookies.

If you want to write to a text file, you should create the text file on the
server, and have a server side process edit it.
(Note that it may be possible to use plugins to store text files, but I
refuse to work with plugins, so I do not have any answers here.)
