Javascript to save files in browser?

I generate html pages which are viewed locally. Is there a way i can use javascript to save files in a user designated folder? (like C:/dev/myapp/here)

I looked at HTML5 File API on MDN and see how to read files when a user selects them. No way to save files. I know how i can cache files by creating image tags but i like to generate a single button which will kick off a script to download a series of files (zip, gif, png, jpg). I dont suppose i can do that with javascript can i?
