You cannot. The client's machine is not accessible for Web application. Thanks goodness! If it was accessible, who would agree to use such Internet?

Let me ask you: can you read? I answered the question, and I mean it.
"Alternate solution" is the notion applicable to the case when there is at least one solution. :-)

Yes you can create files on client machine by using javascript code or activex control embeded in your page...

server side code written in c# or other language can not create files on client machine.

Yes it will work in all browsers....

like :

create activex control and applets for IE
create plug-ins and applets for FIREFOX AND CROME...
