i have open my httpd or apache , it works when online , but not when offline ...
anything to do with the etc/host file? Do you have localhost defined in there?
If not, your machine may be using DNS to resolve localhost, where if it is set in the host file, you should be able to access it while offline.

127.0.0.1 should work regardless of what's in /etc/hosts
If you do an ifconfig
do you see the lo
loopback interface?
This may be a better question for superuser or serverfault
This is a bug in Google Chrome. Starting Chrome with --enable-ipv6 fixes it.
See http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=42058 for details.
in ubuntu, when offline. you can use ifconfig command manually to config the ethernet card. e.g. eth0 a ip. then you can access localhost.
for example: ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.101
