Instead of opening the file direcetly, do a "save as" and save the file to your local machine. Then start notepad and do a file -> open and select this js file. You can see the code in notepad.

When you are double clicking the file, the contents of the file gets executed, which is why you get the above error.

Hope that answers your question

Answer 2

This error occurs because your default acction for open is to execute the .js file.
What you should be doing is editing the file or opening the file with Notepad.
You may also like to download Notepad++. It is free and has linenumbers as well as a language parser.
