If you can package a simple webserver that can be run automatically by the end-user, then, well, you'll have a server to use. ~TJ
[whatwg] What will not work when we do not have server ?
Dear all, I am making a (uff from long time) some e-learning modules using HTML5. The idea is just to make a full interactive lectures (audio, video, svg animations , JavaScript, canvas , all sort of new good web technologies etc ), But there is a little problem. Student will be able to download as a zip file. When they want to watch those html5 based interactive tutorials, all they need to click on index.html which will open the tutorial. I want to ask that what will not work in this mode. for example, I have cheked that some basic jQuery ajax demos are working well in both url http://localhost/narendra/demo.html OR file:///var/www/narenda/demo.html I want to know the list for all the such drafts which will not work without server. So that I will avoid them Or try to get some workaround. -- ┌─┐ │Narendra Sisodiya ( नरेन्द्र सिसोदिया ) │Society for Knowledge Commons │Web : http://narendra.techfandu.org └─┘

But you also need to be careful about security rules for file:// differing from http://, e.g. Firefox 3 apparently considers files in parent directories to be non-same-origin, so you can't use XMLHttpRequest to get ../foo/bar.txt, and if you have an img src=../images/example.png and draw it on a canvas then you won't be able to call toDataURL or getImageData, whereas it would be fine if the files were on an http:// site. -- Philip Taylor exc...@gmail.com
