It seems like you have opened this file by double-clicking on it. In order to test your build in a browser you need to load this file from a web server. You can either upload this file and the rest of the files from a Defold HTML5 bundle to a web hosting service OR host them using a local web server on your home network.
The example loads an image bundled as a custom resource (bundled in the game archive) and uses it to replace the first image of an atlas. See code comments for implementation details.
