Using the file:// scheme on iPod touch

[flowney]

I have a Jailbroken 1.1.3 iPod touch. There is a small patch to Mobile Safari that enables the use of the file:// scheme in addition to the http:// scheme. I have applied this patch which should enable me to open and display *.html files on my iPod touch.

My question is this: Where do I put .html files on my iPod touch in order to be able to open/display them using the file:// scheme? If I need to create a folder, where do I put it and what permissions do I use?

Of course, an automated solution would be preferred, one that creates a root folder for locally viewable HTML files and transfers HTML and image files to that folder such that I would access them with a URI that looks like:

file:///www/home.html
