How to use/import separate js file for the form validation created in webscript?

At which location should I put my js for the form validation?

It is up to you where to place the file. You just need to import it with the correct path either via a Surf extension module dependency customisation or a configuration as a form dependency. Maybe you should re-read your certification preparation material, the documentation about writing dashlets, or some of the examples.

As for hooking in a function for form validation, it completely depends on how you build the form. From your previous questions I assume you are writing a completely custom form without using any of the capabilities that Alfresco already provides, so it is completely up to you...
