The browsers I've tried it in prevent ATTACH and similar subterfuges in various different ways. Strangely, they don't seem to explicitly trap it or provide an error code for it, but they've either removed it from the built-in version of SQLite they use, or the permissions the process runs under bar access to arbitrary folders. I'm pleased everyone cared about security and annoyed that I can't use the slick HTML5 database functions to do what I want.
