create a text file using javascript

I am using the following code to create a text file using javascript and it's not working

<html>
    <head>
        <script language="javascript">
            function WriteToFile()
            { 
                var txt = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
                var s = txt.CreateTextFile("11.txt", true);
                s.WriteLine('Hello');
                s.Close();
             }
         </script>
    </head>
   <body onLoad="WriteToFile()">
   </body>
</html>

Try this:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
 function WriteToFile(passForm) {

    set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");  
    set s = fso.CreateTextFile("C:\test.txt", True);
    s.writeline("HI");
    s.writeline("Bye");
    s.writeline("-----------------------------");
    s.Close();
 }
  </SCRIPT>

</head>

<body>
<p>To sign up for the Excel workshop please fill out the form below:
</p>
<form onSubmit="WriteToFile(this)">
Type your first name:
<input type="text" name="FirstName" size="20">
<br>Type your last name:
<input type="text" name="LastName" size="20">
<br>
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>

This will work only on IE

That works better with this :

var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var a = fso.CreateTextFile("c:\\testfile.txt", true);
a.WriteLine("This is a test.");
a.Close();

From a web page this cannot work since IE restricts the use of that object.

You have to specify the folder where you are saving it and it has to exist, in other case it will throw an error.

var s = txt.CreateTextFile("c:\\11.txt", true);
