Post by terryho » Fri Jun 08, 2018 4:05 pm

Hi

I use browser widget in Android device, which browse local web page, in this web page there is a hype-link to another local file. when click on this hype-link, it will show this message in the web page "can not load http://libbrowser_dummy_url/myhypelink.html", and also this error "net::ERR_CACHE_MISS".

How can i change this variable, in order to point to my local folder?

Regards

Terry Ho

I thought browsers were forbidden to read the user's local file system, for security reasons.
