Alexey Kazakov created JBIDE-17944: -------------------------------------- Summary: BrowserSim: Use http: protocol instead of file: for accessing local files Key: JBIDE-17944 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17944 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: browsersim Reporter: Alexey Kazakov Currently, BrowserSim works through file: protocol but this protocol doesn't work well with paths relative to the webroot (which start with "/"). So if a local file contains any links to local resources (css, js, ...) via relative paths then these resources are not available in BrowserSim. For example all official ionic example projects use such paths. It makes "open with BrowserSim" feature useless for those projects. It would be great if BrowserSim uses http: as our HTML5 preview does. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2.6#6264)
