I had a quick look at how we can detect that access was denied, and it seems that the only difference with a normal load sequence (load started, load committed, load succeeded) is that the HTTP status code is always 0 for all events in the sequence.
A "load succeeded" event with an HTTP status code of 0 might be enough to indicate that access was denied, need to double check. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to webbrowser-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1503332 Title: Blank page when access to local URL (file://…) is denied Status in Ubuntu UX: New Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Since version 0.23+15.10.20151005-0ubuntu1, webbrowser-app is running under apparmor confinement. This means that access to the local filesystem is denied (file://… URLs). There is no user feedback when that happens other than a blank page, which is not really great UX. A user-friendly error message to inform that browsing the local filesystem is restricted would be better.
