Dan,

I've never done==> replace " " with "%20" in fURL. on Android for a local
file. As far as I know the Android file system will not like the "%20"s for
file access on the device.

Subject: Android: mobileControlSet

I can't seem to load a local (included) file in a native browser on Android.
This works perfect on iOS:

on loadURL pFileName
    put specialFolderPath("engine") & "/userGuide/" & pFileName into fURL

    put "file://" & fURL into fURL
    replace " " with "%20" in fURL
    mobileControlSet sBrowserId, "url", fURL end loadURL

But, on Android, it just says it can't find the file.  I used "if there is a
file" to check the validity of the file and it is "there".  I can even read
it in and display it with:

    mobileControlDo sBrowserId, "load", fURL, htmlData

But again, fURL doesn't seem to be accepted so any referenced images in
htmlData are missing.

Can Android load a "file" into it's native browser control?  Or, am I doing
something wrong?

Any advice would be appreciated.

-Dan
