I have a number of documents in HTML format, and would like to be able to read them on my PRS-950 - is that possible with or without PRS+? I have tried using the file tag in a URL in the Reader's browser, but that is rejected - i.e. file://localhost/<some directory>/file.html

Is there any way to make that work?

I use this method a lot on Linux and Windows for local docs in HTML format - works great with Lynx (as a file browser) for docs that are mostly text.

TIA
