Android: mobileControlSet

[Dan Friedman]

Ralph,

Yeah... it's there.  Like I said before, I can read the data from the same location and put it in the browser with:

	mobileControlDo sBrowserId, "load", fURL, htmlData

I just can't load it as a url with:

	mobileControlSet sBrowserId, "url", fURL

I think it's something to do with loading a local "file" that's the problem.
