[Javascript] javascript code for getting and setting coordina tes

[Karau, Joe]

You won't be able to use javascript to do such a thing with a great deal of
confidence.  Instead, modify the applet to recognize the location that the
user clicked.  If you want to write the coordinates to a file, you will have
to do some server-side scripting.

You can't. JavaScript cannot write to files.
