I Am REOPENING the Topic from the following link ,
because it is NOT Resolved ...
"Opening local HTML files."
LINK: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1466164
The Original Article indicated that someone could not open "local .html files" that would be on the phone , such as using firefox , to open a "local .html file" that was located at "phone/folder/filename.html" ;
In the link above , the "Response" from the "moderator" called "Paul" said ...

Hi
It is currently not possible to open saved HTML files in Firefox for Android. There are no plans to allow this in the near future.
[UNQUOTE]
That response is blatantly FALSE .
The PREVIOUS version of Firefox , namely "fennec" , CAN open "local .html files" , even at this very moment in time .
When using the PREVIOUS version of "Firefox for Android" , namely "fennec" , a "local .html file" AND a "local .txt file" could EACH be opened by CLICKING the "local file" , and then the "phone" would "DISPLAY A PROMPT" to open the "local file" using the phone's native "HTML VIEWER" , or using "FIREFOX" .
The PREVIOUS version of Firefox , CAN also upload images to "forums" .
This can easily be verified by uploading a discontinued version of "fennec" from the following link , or elsewhere ...

"How can I download a previous version of Firefox for Android?"
LINK: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1300966 )
When using the CURRENT version of "Firefox for Android" , namely "fenix" , the "phone" just opens the "local .html file" or "local .txt file" using the phone's native "HTML VIEWER" .
The CURRENT version of "Firefox for Android" , namely "fenix (v110)" , will NOT Upload "local images" to forums , such as when an "upload button" is pressed on a "forum" , something that "fennec" can do ; and yes , the phone's "permissions" was granted to firefox to access the phone's "storage" .
As a side note , the previous "fennec" also Displayed a "button" at the top of a "page" to show a "simplified page view" , for those sites that offered "simplified page views" , something the "fenix" does not offer .
Is it a "BEHIND THE SCENES" Mystery , about why the previous "fennec" could do all those things , while the "new" "fenix" can not ?
P.S. The ONLY reason I changed FROM "fennec (v68)" , literally about TWO WEEKS AGO , to "fenix (v110)" , was because some "sites" were saying "browser outdated" , or some "sites" were displaying "jumbled pages" , presumably because the "sites" were "trying" to do more "fancy javascript" and other "unnecessary bling" .
PROBLEM : "fenix" will not open "local .html files"
PROBLEM : "fenix" will not open "local .txt files"
PROBLEM : "fenix" will not "upload images" to "forums" .
SOLUTION: look at the PREVIOUS "fennec" , and then fix the CURRENT "fenix" .
To those whom it concerns ,
I Thank you for trying .
