Local path to .bib doesn't display? #73

Hi!

I'm testing out this package for our academic purposes, and I came across this issue.

In the documents, it says that I should be able to enter the desired bibliography file as follows:

<bibtex src="test.bib"></bibtex>
<bibtex src="text1.bib"></bibtex>

or 

<textarea id="bibtex_input" style="display:none;">
@book{book1,
  author = "Donald Knuth",
  title = "Concrete Mathematics"
}
</textarea>

However, the first option doesn't seem to work for me for a local file placed at the current working directory. For example, "test.bib" does not render, neither does anything else I place in the project dir tree.

That being said, if I add the contents of test.bib in the textarea tags, that works. Also, I am able to visualize the default demo libraries that are hosted on GitHub. It just doesn't seem to work for .bibs that I place inside the project. Any insight?

Hi, this might be a duplicate of #41. It seems that bibtex-js needs to pull .bib files from web server (possibly localhost)
