I have 3 files: formData.json, myForm.html, and form.js.
How can I take data from .json using JavaScript, and load it to my HTML form without any kind of server, just using Chrome? Is it even possible? Thanks.
Yes, it is possible, but probably requires an entire tutorial rather than a simple answer, and many choices to be made depending on your requirements and experience.
See if this other answer helps.

I have inserted my javascripts in the header.php file, but I noticed the whole code can be stolen by simply lookin at the source from within any single post or homepage...
May you suggest me a simple way to hide my javascripts in wordpress somehow to prevent being copied/stolen?
You can't hide javascript. Client always need to access it.
You can minify and uglyfy your code, so it will be hard to read it

On some webpages I meet the following script tag:
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../Scripts/view-item-details.js?v1"></script>
what does ?v1 really stand for and why is it used?
Everything behind the question mark is a parameter that is delivered to the JavaScript.
In the given case a change in the version number prevents the browser from using the cached file and instead getting it from the server.

These are called cache busters.
Usually, when a browser downloads a file (CSS, JS, etc.) it caches it so that it doesn't have to download it later.
However, this is a problem when you decide to update your file, because the browser thinks it already has the latest version. To work around it, we use the cache busters. When you make a change to the file, you also change the number after the question marks, which tricks the browser into thinking this is a different file for which it doesn't have a cache it, and forces a re-download.
Sometimes JS scripts are created on the fly using server side technologies other times it is simply a version number to help with browser caching issues

Im using Jquery ui. I want to drop a external file in a dropzone and get just the path of the file. I think i have to overwrite the default function window.drop. But im not sure how to do it or what to write instead ?
You can't get the local file path in JavaScript, for security reasons.
