HOW DO I OPEN A LOCAL WEBPAGE WITH LINKS TO IPAD2?

I am very new to the iPAd and this forum, so please excuse if this sound like s silly query!
I am a musician and would like to use my iPad2 on stage to display my lyrics sheets and scores (chords).
So what I have done before is to setup a local webpage index with hyperlinks to all the lyrics and scores in htm/l format. Theis was done on my desktop PC and copied across to my stage laptop. When I used my laptop on stage I could open the main index webpage in the browser and just click on any link which would then obviously also open in the browser. To return to the index you just click on the back arrow to load the next required page.
How do I transfer this webpage and subsequent links to the iPad via iTunes, and then open it in Safari?
I appreciate your help.

You could create an offline web application by creating an HTML manifest file, referencing it from your main web page, and then listing all the other resources loaded by the main page.  Saving this page to the home screen via the "Action" button in Safari would then cache all of the resources and let you access it offline (e.g., in Airplane mode).
The challenge of creating offline web apps is that the main web page may only be loaded once, and the other web "pages" need to be loaded by XMLHttpRequest (XHR), or you could put all content in a single HTML page, and hide/show the content by modifying CSS properties.  The main web page may not be replaced by another web page (e.g., when tapping on a link), otherwise the web app will open the new page in Safari.
Note that to initially set up this web app, you'll have to serve it from a local web server on your Mac or PC.  On OS X, you may use Web Sharing from the System Preferences > Sharing pref pane.  You can put the files in the "Sites" directory in the home directory on your Mac, and you can access the web pages from your iPad if your Mac and iPad are on the same local network.
More information here, although there are probably tutorials if you search Google for them:

I know there is a lot of technical information here, but I hope that helps.  It is possible to do what you want to do, although it's not simple.

  • How to setup word docs, converted to PDF on local drive with links to a second file at a page

    how to setup word docs, converted to PDF on local drive with links to a second file at a page
    Need to setup a set of word documents, converted to PDF that has links from one file to a second file at a given page.
    I would like to setup a set of pdf documents, on the hard disk of a PC or Mac, that can be open with acrobat pro running on the same computer and have the link jump to, and open in a new window, in acrobat pro, to a given page of a second document in the set.
    Is there a way to setup a link in word and the conversion to pdf that will result in a link that is equivalent to the acrobat link type  you get when you add a link of the type Go to a page in another document?
    Tools-Advanced Editing-Link tool, make a box
    Check: Go to page view, Next (Create go to view dialog opens)
    Open second document and go to page
    Click “Create go to view dialog” to set up link
    Result is a link, when view by link properties, with an action of
    Go to a page in another document
    File: C:\My Documents\second file.pdf
    Page: 43
    Zoom level: Custom
    I got close but did not solve the problem:
    I have a version that uses links to a website, using #page=43 at the end of the hyperlink.
    That works but will only open to the page if is through the web browser, opening the acrobat reader plugin.
    I need to open from a folder on the local harddisk (with relative links), in acrobat pro to the given page of the pdf, on a PC or a Mac.
    I could bookmark each page “pagenumberxxx” and jump to the bookmark/page if that would get around some problem
    Current Systems in use to create documents with links and view them:
    Windows XP SP3
    Word 2003 SP3
    Acrobat 9 pro version 9.4.4
    Or just to view them:
    Mac OS 10 Lion version 10.7.4
    Acrobat 9 pro version 9.5.1
    (note I have limited understanding of Mac’s)
    John

    No.  There seems to be no automated way to do it.  You can of course go into the PDF and manually add links after you have converted to PDF, but that is what we want to avoid having to do.  We want it to be automatic from the Word doc.

    Hi
    I am not suprised no one answered your questions, there are simply to many of them. Can I suggest you read the faq on 'how to get help quickly at - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/470404.

    Don't post a series of questions in  a single post. Splitting them into separate threads increases your  chances of a quick answer.

  • How do I open an iWeb file with Texteditor?

    How do I open an iWeb file with Texteditor? I want to embed a midi file but I don't see any of the iWeb files under my document folder. Where are they and how do I open them in Texteditor? Thanks!

    first you have to publish the site. If you publish to idisk you can find the html files there and edit them there. If you publish to a folder find the file within that folder.
    you can use textedit, but check the help files to make sure you configured it properly for html.
    be aware you would have to edit the html file each time you republish the edited page.
    good luck

  • How do i open a photo taken with sony p1 camera saved in dsc format on cd?

    How do i open a photo taken with sony P1 camera saved in DSC format on a CD?

    The P1 looks like a high end video camera not a still photo camera to me and DSC files appear to be support files not photo or movie files
    Why do you think that you have photos in a DSC format?
    You might give Google a shot and see what you can find but it looks to me like you do not have either image or video files but supporting files - and if you have video files you may have to use iMovie - it is much more robust at working with videos

    how can i open my locked ipad with a forgotten apple id?

    If you’re being asked for your own Apple ID, either use Apple’s iForgot service or contact their Account Security team.
    If you’re being asked for someone else’s Apple ID, you need to contact the device’s original owner(if this is you, take the device and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store) or the person who set the lock.

  • How can I open my ipad passcode with find my ipad is turn on

    how can I open my ipad passcode with my ipad is turn on

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • How can i open a pdf file with pdf paramter that extention is not ".pdf" in ie?

    for example: open in ie with url: "c:\\a.efb#toolbar=0 ", but it can not see anything,the "a.efb" is a sure pdf file that just change the file ext. however i can open  the file in ie without paramters!
    my english is not well,if you know what i say ,please write the answer,thanks!

    I do not know why you want to open a local file in IE, and not directly in Adobe Reader.
    Does it work if you rename the file extension to .pdf?
    If yes, then maybe it will work if you create a file association for .efb as AcroExch.Document to open with AcroRd32.exe
