no, I think I did not made myself clear enough, sorry
I do this:
req = new Request().get('folder/file.html')
this is a relative path, so assuming the request works locally it does
not care too much where the files are located.
I want a fallback to the request in case the script is run not by url
but with open file from the browser, so i need to know if the request
is working or not
