If you work through the HTTP server, this is on the server side, no way.

You cannot use the file with such location. You cannot use absolute path names at all. A Web application is executed in sandboxed environment which won't allow you to access any files beyond the root directory of your site.

And even if you don't use any server and develop just a collection of HTML/JavaScript files (such as documentation), using of absolute paths just cannot be useful. Stay out of trouble.
