I keep a mirror of my Web site on my laptop, and use the laptop Web server at localhost to check changes. That works fine if I am on line, but if my laptop is off line, Firefox refuses to send an HTTP request to localhost.
Is there a way to force Firefox to talk to localhost when off line?
This does not really answer the question. This tells how to turn off "offline" mode, but "offline" really makes no sense when dealing with localhost. localhost is always online. Firefox should be able to contact localhost even when it's considered offline for other sites. Turning offline off will enable localhost but disable other offline apps. – Sam – 2010-07-30T01:42:50.963
This will most definitely be the issue! – Elitmiar – 2009-09-08T08:10:24.973
