I don't know much about ipads, but on android you can't open file:// 
URLs directly, you used to be able to convert them to content:// URLs, 
but  last time I tried doing that, it no longer worked and required a 
web server on the tablet to serve the html files

I think this is the  version of apache that I used a couple of years ago
