and says his company is prepared to donate $100 million dollars to the church if the Lord's Prayer is changed from, 'give us this day our daily bread,' to 'give us this day our daily beer.' "
When the Pope responds, "That is impossible.The Prayer is the word of the Lord -- it must not be changed." The CEO says, "Your Holiness, we respect your position. So how about we will donate $500 million dollars to the Church if you simply change the Lord's Prayer from 'give us this day our daily bread' to 'give us this day our daily beer.' That's our final offer. Please consider it." And he leaves.
The next day the Pope convenes the College of Cardinals. "There is some good news," he announces, "and some bad news." "The good news is that the Church has come into $500 million dollars."
"And the bad news, your eminence?" asks a Cardinal. "We're losing the Wonderbread account."

Finished creating an html document with pics and styling. Wanted to read it on my phone and see if everything looks ok there. The only way to do so seems to be to install an http server on the phone... Can't just dump everything into a subdirectory and click on the html file because android restrictions keep browsers from loading the css and other files. Is the potential risk from loading local javascript files so much greater than loading javascript files off the web that this is needed?
Before finding the local server option, I read items saying that if you dumped things into the browser's 'Download' folder, it could access everything from there. But Android restrictions keep you from viewing those download folders through the file viewer (at least on my Samsung device), saying that 'Android->data' files cannot be accessed due to android restrictions, but can be shown on a computer...
Compound this with the fact that I had to use the Google Play store for the first time in ages, and it is becoming a complete crap-fest of worthlessness....

The only (?) way I could see this maybe being justifiable might be the fact that your connection to a web server is probably going to be done over https, which might buy you some assurance that files served can be trusted[*]. You might not have this assurance when loading files locally (who knows where they came from, and will vouch for them being safe?)
[*] And yes, I realize that a server can be compromised and then none of its files can be trusted. But at least you do get that minimal level of trust...

I'm with you, especially on the maybe. I'd really like to see the research that shows this scenario being a real-world problem. Some idiot plugging into a malware USB dongle? That I can see, but something actually in internal memory??? That makes no sense... Unless 'quick share' and other things are an attack vector... Still, what is the research?

Would it be a viable alternative to host that html page onto GitHub (using a free account) and access that GitHub page from the mobile browser.
(Depends on the privacy of that html content, pictures)

Probably possible, but the fact that android requires such workarounds seems unbelievably stupid.

To test HTML in my local network I just set up a tiny server in Python. You can then access it from your terminal/mobile/PC.
The server script can be found all over the Internet. The code is:
import os
from http.server import HTTPServer, CGIHTTPRequestHandler
os.chdir('D:\serverfolder')
server_object = HTTPServer(server_address=('',8080),RequestHandlerClass=CGIHTTPRequestHandler)
server_object.serve_forever()
Then put your HTML in the folder of your choice mentioned on the os.chdir line, and connect from the browser to your IP address, e.g. http://192.168.1.72:8080/webpagename.html
The nice thing is that it really does test the HTML and file links to local OS folders, etc. doesn't get in the way.
http only so insecure and only to be used locally but, adequate for testing and accessible from anywhere on your local network.

Thanks for the reply. I've already solved it with a server on the phone, but maybe someone comes across this some day and finds it helpful! I must also admit that I haven't played with Python, but I'll keep it in mind in the future.

I remember in a Robotics course, two students had used a so-called 3D Rotation Matrix as [1 1 1; 1 1 1; 1 1 1]. When asked by my Prof whether they had copied from each other, the vehemently said No. But when asked how could the use the same erroneous Rotation Matrix, they had to admit one copied from the other.
Learning: If you copy from someone, at least make sure the solution is correct.
Addendum: A proper 3D Rotation Matrix has to satisfy several properties including the one where the cross product of the first two columns should be the third column, and so on. Further the magnitude of each column should be 1.

I had the same thing marking OU assignments many years ago.
I had about 20 papers to mark and at one point thought I'd incorrectly put one in the wrong pile as I was sure I'd seen it before (it had a few unique errors that stood out). I also did my marking in the pub, but that's another story...
So, two almost identical papers. After being reported they claimed they didn't know each other, despite sitting beside each other at every tutorial. They were told there were 60 marks available for the joint paper and would they care to let us know how the wished the marks proportioned between them. They stuck to their story and got 30 marks each, along with a final warning.

Good but the methodology is flawed because the question and answer were posted before the exam.
Someone may stumble upon that particular question and answer, not understand the reasoning and committing it to memory - sadly in Engineering I met a lot of students that studied old exams verbatim and managed to get passing votes because there are only so many questions you can ask in ever reducing exam durations.

In the exact subjects, just change the numbers a bit and you have a brand-new question.
Of course, then the instructor would have to solve the new question, rather than using the crib sheet handed down from previous instructors. That might cut into his/her/its research time.
