View Full Version : Run html from memory stick

I installed netFront 3.0 to both internal memory and to my memory stick. How do I run it from my memory stick? The only icon on the launcher is for the internal copy.
I want to view html pages (with images) that I wrote myself and copied to the memory stick. Running NetFront from the launcher loads the html text, but won't load the JPEG images, so I suppose I do not have them in the proper folder on the memory stick.
Anyone know what folder to store the images in on the memory stick and the proper html call to retrieve them properly on the NX-60?
Thanks.

You need PowerRun (http://homepage2.nifty.com/hackerdudesan/index-e.html).

Thanks - I think I understand the PowerRun concept now - but does anyone know what the html code should look like for loading a JPEG image into NetFront 3.0 from the memory stick?
If I store the images in Palm/images, but not in any sub-directories, NetFront 3.0 will load them if I choose "saved file," but I can't seem to load them from any other folder or sub-directory on the memory stick, nor can I find the right "img src=????? imagename.jpg html code to get NetFront to load an image from my html file.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi,
To save HTML content to your memory stick so that NetFront can find it, you can use /PALM/Programs/MSWeb/...
I assume this is where you would place JPEGs as well.

Actually, NetFront only found them in /PALM/Images/, and did not find them in /PALM/Programs/MSWeb/,
but I think I found my html code problem - I may have to put the name of the memory stick into the file name:
<img src = "file:///"memory stick name"/..../..../imagename.jpg>
Will have to wait until this evening to try it.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Relative paths work, they may be easier to muck around with rather than trying to figure out where NetFront recons the root of the file system is ...

Hi,
The following worked:
<img src = "file:///"memory stick name"/..../..../imagename.jpg>
Html files must be in /Palm/Programs/MSWEB for NetFront 3.0 to find them, but the images can be anywhere on the memory stick as long as the images source html code is written as shown above. I hadn't realized that the name of the memory stick was required.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
