Path to javascript source code at local browsing

Where should I put my javascript source code in order to run it "locally" by file not by http?---not sure this "locally" is the appropriate word here.
My test is when my javascript code (test.js) is put in the site default folder as the test.html in /var/www/html both worked as expected with http:
Code:
http://localhost/test.html

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/test.js"> </script>

However, when I tried to test it at URL window with file:
Code:
file:///home/davids/study/WebTech/test.html

I can see my html result, but my javascript code was not executed.
Where should I put the external javascript source code (here:test.js) in order to test it "locally"?

Thanks!

You need to supply the correct (relative or absolute) path to test.js. As given, the html script will look into the root directory (unless chrooted).

Ahh, back slash "/" - that is the root!
