> I'm looking for functionality to open local files on the Android file system.
> The case for me is that when I download a file, it's stored in /mnt/sdcard/file.ext. But I can't link to the file with file:/// or content://
> file:/// Gives me a blank white window with the text "undefined".
> content:// Does nothing.
> How can I implement some script to open files I just downloaded to the filesystem? (like pdf/doc/...)
