Answer 1

You could save files, and make it persistent using the FileSystem-API and webkit. You would have to use a chrome browser and it is not a standards technology but I think it does exactly what you want it to do. Here is a great tutorial to show how to do just that http://www.noupe.com/design/html5-filesystem-api-create-files-store-locally-using-javascript-webkit.html

And to show that its on topic it starts off showing you how to make the file save persistent...

window.webkitRequestFileSystem(window.PERSISTENT , 1024*1024, SaveDatFileBro);
