I can't open multiple html files stored on my hard drive?

I have tried two methods: "File, Open File, html files location, click a html file then CRTL-A" and "selecting all html files and dragging to browser"

The "Open File" window doesn't allow you to select multiple files. It's a limitation of Windows Explorer. Dragging multiple files into Firefox doesn't work either.

I tried Opera to see if I can select and open multiple html files - and it works.

I also tried selecting and dragging html files into Opera - and that works too.

Windows Explorer did cross my mind, but after trying Opera I came to the conclusion this is a Firefox problem as Opera appears to use Windows Explorer too?
