HTML and Javascript and everything locally in App Inventor? Yes, that's possible! Did I already say "Thank you Gary?" Thank you!

I am in awe of what you are doing Taifun. I have wanted to play with web apps in App Inventor and now I have a good, clean example to work with
  after I get a few things done.

I want to see if I can use App Inventor rather than html forms in web apps. I think with App Inventor it's easier to build powerful forms than in a web page with javascript.

I think it is important for apps to work offline and we are finding ways to do that.

I have not said
  woo hoo
often enough recently!

I put 1 bullet in and died on the third shot :(
Nice work, Taifun!
I was wondering if we could make an app that has a textbox editor for javascript and Web Viewer output for a simple javascript code tester.
I think we have all the tools needed to do it.

Sounds interesting

I am going to do my best to focus on V1.3, but would love to hear how it goes.

@Taifun. Since we can run Javascript in the Web Viewer and we have the ability to save files on the sdcard, I thought it might be interesting to combine those capabilities to make a simple Javascript editor where you can load, save and run Javascript from inside App Inventor.

Go for it!

And look into what all you can do with HTML5. I have some apps that use the File API
works!
  usually ;-)

ok, I understand
you have a html file as asset inside AI
and you like to load a Javascript from outside of AI
but the Javascript needs to be included in the html file to be able to access it...
therefore I do not think that this is possible
and let's assume it would be possible, currently I do not know how I could use that somewhere

follow Gary's advice and take a look at HTML5 possibilities, there also is a canvas...
and include that into AI...
