For a browser, I don't believe that it is possible (or, for your application, necessary) to use client-side Javascript to edit a text file, which I assume you would use as a log. In order to make a browser-based chat system, you definitely need server logic.
However, I should probably mention that on the upcoming Windows 8, Javascript is a first-class citizen with the OS. That means that Windows applications (at least the full screen ones) can be written in Javascript and HTML 5, and the programs have full access to all of Windows's systems, including the file I/O that you need. So, your chat application (or any other Javascript app that you want to write) can easily be written as a Windows 8 app. Cut the Rope is one example of a Javascript app that was ported to Windows 8, and it supports features, such as in-app purchase, that many web developers never expected to get.
