title: Loading html file from local folder into webview
body: <p>I'm new to Android development.</p>
  
  <p>I want to load <em>a html file</em> into <em>a webview</em>.</p>
  
  <p>Note that there are so many relevant questions on SO like <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5812277/open-local-html-file-in-webview-android">this</a>, but they all deal with getting **.html* from <em>assets</em> folder.</p>
  
  <p>But I want to load html file from local folder, say "D://abc.html" because if my html is around 10Mb then corresponding apk size also goes upto 10mb.</p>
  
  <p>Any help appreciated.</p>
  
  <h2>EDIT</h2>
  
  <p>I tried <code>webView.loadUrl("file:///D:/Projects/myWebsite/index.html");</code></p>
  
  <p>but it gives <code>Web page not available</code> and <code>File not found error</code>.</p>
