Opening local .html files on iPad
I have created a personal homepage that I have loaded on my Macs at home. Any way I can use this file on my iPad 3?

It is possible to open local HTML files in Safari on iPad2. Easy!
Open your Safari.
Touch Bookmark icon for a little while.
A dialogue box appears with "/var/Mobile" title.
Go to "Applications" > your app (iFile, GoodReade or whatever yours) > Documents.
And you are there. Open your HTML files.
Now you can go anywhere to and fro without problem.
It is FTP:///.
If need later, Bookmark that.
With Loving-Kindness!

Depends on what you want to do with it, and what applications you have. To my knowledge, you can't open it in Safari. You can however, open it from something like GoodReader or Dropbox and then open in iCab (other third party browsers may allow this as well), and then book mark it.
What do you mean by "homepage"?
If you mean the wallpaper, make a .jpg out of the html, save it to your iPad and then set it as your wallpaper.
If you mean the default page that opens with Safari each time you launch it, Safari returns to whatever page you were last viewing, it does not have a "homepage".
I hoped to be able to use it as my homepage on the iPad.
Again as suggested, not with Safari. There are a few other browsers available that would allow you to do this.
How would I go about doing this in iOS 9? Thanks!
