Nokia E61: how to open a local HTML file

    The third year will soon come, as I am engaged in software development, using as a workplace not only a regular computer, but also a Nokia E61 smartphone. Now, for full-fledged work on the program, I don’t have to carry a laptop with me - I can edit the sources and compile them with only a smartphone. Considering that I develop software for mobile, this solution turned out to be almost ideal for me. Mobile workplace has become an excellent means of personal time management - allowing me to do work when others spend time on standing in long lines or trying to portray a dream on the subway. I am not a workaholic. Transferring the work to the “garbage”, otherwise wasted time, I freed evenings and weekends FOR LIFE.

    However, enough lyrics. It's not about the pros or cons of working on the road. The method below is useful to anyone who needs to look at a smartphone locally stored HTML file.

    Any program, no matter how well it has its own area, at the same time, it is necessary to look at the documentation. Well, if your workplace is a personal computer. But I work on a smartphone every day for 2-3 hours between the house and the office. Slightly, it was necessary to allow the user to work a little while, just remember to take some time off.

    I am working with J2ME, and its documentation is a collection of local HTML files. Even having copied the files to the Nokia E61 flash drive, I have not been able to open them with a built-in telephone. The X-plore file manager is available and allows you to view the HTML page, but it does not allow you to click through the links.

    Having recollected about when it was not possible for me and removed from the phone of the Opera, I downloaded it from the official website and the mobile phone was unavailable!

    It turned out that the Oppera perfectly opens local files, allowing you to look up the text on open pages and click on the links on the other page. To open a local file, in the browser line, specify the location of the file in the following format as URL:
    file: // localhost / E: /Documents/JavaDoc/API/MIDP/index.html
    If you just enter file: // localhost / E: / , the browser will allow you to scroll through the directories of the phone flash drive and specify the desired file "interactively" . Having saved the links to the most frequent “help” page on the back, I got a very convenient five-star reference system.
