Custom Output HTML for Pocket IE
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

I need to be able to view a lot of information and one way I have found to do this is I can output an HTML folder with all the stuff I need. I can view and search all the information through my PC web browser without a hitch.

My question is this:

Can a WM5 phone running Pocket IE run this output off the flash or even the onboard memory? The output has the appearance of a wap site if that helps.

Thanx,
MetroGT

So.... You mean can you put an html file on your smartphone, then use PIE to view it? Yes.

Can you do a find?
{best HAL interpretation} I'm sorry Dave, I'm afriad I can't do that..

At lease on the 2 Smartphone devices I've tested out, Dash/Blackjack, PIE doesn't have a find function.

I would really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really like to understand why something so basic was left out of PIE. I swear they deploy PIE in a pre-broken status just so people will try to find something else and constantly feel the need to upgrade. yeesh.

You may be able to use the mobipocket reader to do what you want.
It will display html documents, and allow you to search as well as dictionary lookups.

I tested it out with a 8125 with Pocket IE and got it working fine, but I launched the opening file under File Explorer.
