You will enable apache or http on your server to be used as a webserver.

if firefox/mozilla is running ctrl-o and navigate to /var/tmp/file.html and click open
or use links (lynx,elinks??)
links /var/tmp/file.html

few things. sol10 ships with mozilla. you can download firefox for sol10 as a pkg. also, if you are accessing the box via something like putty, you will need to do X11 forwarding. something like exceed works nicely to handle windowing. there are plenty of docs out there on how to do that. i wouldn't go with the lynx because its a text output and may not show you what you want or looking for.
