You can, BUT if the user hoses that directory, your website becomes
useless, especially if it is very dependant on the JavaScript.

Before you post to the newsgroup, did you try some experiments?
If so, what were your findings?
If not, how dare you? Seriously.

Well, it doesn't get any more exotic than this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="C:/xxx/JS/myscript.js">alert('File not
found!');</script>

please join the bottom-posters.

Something else to keep in mind is that the local drive and the website from
which the pages are coming, are different domains as far the browser is
concerned. So cross-domain security restrictions apply. This needn't be a
problem though.
