313
314 It provides additional protected methods to simplify the process
315 of opening the file: GetProtocol(), GetLeftLocation(), GetRightLocation(),
316 GetAnchor(), GetMimeTypeFromExt().
317
318 Please have a look at overview (see wxFileSystem) if you don't know how locations
319 are constructed.
320
321 Also consult the @ref overview_fs_wxhtmlfs "list of available handlers".

325 @remarks
326 wxHTML library provides handlers for local files and HTTP or FTP protocol.
327
328 @note
329 The location parameter passed to OpenFile() or CanOpen() methods is always an
330 absolute path. You don't need to check the FS's current path.
