That is a very workable solution - actually, I didn't even realise that such services existed. Now, if I want to let them know what I am reading, that's another matter. But good suggestion, thanks.

</html>

When you open this file with the file explorer and click on the first link,
the desired page will appear.
Clicking on the second link, you will have the option to open the pdf file
or save it in the "SD\downloads" folder.
I fear that this would not really solve my initial issue: I would have to edit the file directly, and as I am not always on the same PC, not do-able; which then mean that I would have to make the file on the PC, then transfer to the reader. Still, it has one added bonus: one file can contain multiple links.
Hm, I wonder it the reader interprets a META redirect, or ditto js?

All in all, you still did me a favour, as I wasn't aware that the reader would serve (in the technological sense) a file directly from storage to browser... so thanks, it opens possibilities.

Cheers!
