Oh yes, I almost forgot. To test this locally in Chrome, you
need a minimal web server, because file:/// URLs don't work.

It's a pity, but I don't know what to do about it. But as
it works for our website (via HTTP), this is no big deal.

Also, I can partly understand why Chrome is doing that,
as you probably don't want every downloaded (saved) HTML
website to have full access to all your files. However,
I think they could at least enable access to sub directories.

Maybe at some time you had checked out the stable branch?
(That's the trap I run sometimes into.)
