Sorry if I write an extensive explaination just now, but I was a bit busy lately. The behaviour of the webbrowser-app can be divided in three categories when trying to open a file (or a folder) from local memory. 1 - Unexistent file or folder: will return the "Network Error". 2 - Existing file or folder, but without permission in that directory. For example writing "/usr/" should access the /usr/ folder, but the webbrowser doesn't have enought permission to open it, the returning page is a blank one, without any intestation or anything else. 3 - Existing file or folder, with permission. The directories webbrowser can open are as far as i know /home/phablet/Downloads and /home/phablet/.config/webbrowser and maybe the respective .cache and .local direcrories. In these directories is possible to browse and open files as shown in the screenshot I am attaching. I hope it's an enought clear explaination.
