Local API documentation is not viewable

[ScoPi]

I cannot seem to get a local copy of the API documentation that comes with ExtJS 3.1.1 to be viewable in Internet Explorer 7 or in Firefox 3.6. The basic layout of the API docs will load (the tree is on the left), but the main content area on the right says "Loading..." indefinitely. There is a JavaScript error in IE that says:

Line: 2588
Char: 13
Error: Access is denied.
Code: 0
URL: file:///C:/Users/[username]/Documents/Libraries/ext-3.1.1/docs/index.html

I've made sure that Windows Vista isn't blocking the files, and my account owns them.

Firefox shows this error in Firebug:

this.el is null
this.render(this.el.dom.parentNode); ext-all.js (line 15617)

Any ideas?

You need to run it through a web server, the content is loaded via Ajax.

Really? That seems odd that that would be required, but thanks. I'll just use the API docs hosted online for now.

Every dev needs a web server to develop apps. If you are on win, get xampp, an all-in-one-package ready to go.

I've got WAMP now... Just seems odd to host API docs on it.
