Android: mobileControlSet

[Ralph DiMola]

This is sounding familiar. I think I remember that there was a double slash
funny I ran into with Android and I also remember that it was not the same
on iOS. Try using only one slash after the "file:"

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.
