As a what feels like a long time Jquery user. I would like to introduce to you a very useful from my tool box. The tools is call Pow (Plain old Webserver). Its a cross platform web server that is a 63k Firefox plug in.
Since its a full featured web server you can work locally on all of your dynamic websites. Many browser features like cookies don't work from file:// urls will now work by using Pow. In addition to being able to serve html and another static files. Your can create cgi's using javascript as your server side programming language. Pow also comes with a SQL database (sqlite) for database driven sites. If you are looking into Adobe Air for desktop development you can get more bang for your buck with Pow which is open source. David Kellog the developer is very responsive with bug fixes and new feature requests Pow also comes as stand alone web server that is cross platform than can runs off of a pen drive. So if you are like me you can use the same server and data on your mac at home and on you windows machine at work.
