I don't think storing this on the client is a good approach to doing it... if you choose to do this, then you're breaking one of the Web's main advantages, which is client independency (you will most likely lock the user to a single browser that supports a specific plugin, 95% chance that it will be IE). You should really consider using the server to handle the templates. Do you have many clients accessing this application? Are the templates too big, and do you have many of these files for each user? You could even consider using a database to store templates, and read them when the user needs their data. Then you could save them in the user's session for optimal performance. There are many ways of doing it, but it all depends on how you are going to use the files.
