                var data= { srcimg :document.getElementById("ClonedElementX").src }
                alert(data.srcimg);
                 var fso = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
                 var fh = fso.OpenTextFile("C:\\Users\\Bhargavi\\workspace\\HTML\\drag&drop\\parse", 8);
                 fh.WriteLine(data.srcimg);
                 fh.Close(); 
        }

Use Internet Explorer (I never thought I would say that). – Frédéric Hamidi Oct 08 '13 at 08:55
This was a supported thing in IE and also a security issue. Javascript should not be able to access directly to your hard disk. – Sina R. Oct 08 '13 at 08:55

for IE also its not working – Bhargavi Oct 08 '13 at 09:00
@Bhargavi - As I told you its a security issue why you want to do that? – Sina R. Oct 08 '13 at 09:06
ok tell me some other functions that help to write the file using javascript – Bhargavi Oct 08 '13 at 09:11
The point that @imsiso was trying to make is that you shouldn't be attempting to access the local hard disk in the first place. – Qantas 94 Heavy Oct 08 '13 at 13:57
