I would like to read and write text files from javascript. I would like the text files to be located in a subdirectory, but even if I specify a proper file path, the text file writes in the same directory as the javascript file.

    var f = new File('/testdir/testfile.txt','write','TEXT');

// the file 'testfile.txt' appears in the same directory as the js file, not in the testdir subdirectory.

I would like to read and write text files from javascript. I would like the text files to be located in a subdirectory, but even if I specify a proper file path, the text file writes in the same directory as the javascript file.
Do I miss something? 

my test function:
function test()
{
	var f = new File('/testdir/testfile.txt','write','TEXT');
	f.writestring('test');
	f.close();
}
