ok thanks for the info. looks like there is no solution for this.
my site is only for intranet, not for the open www. I’m able to use the file:// protocol with the browsers but it doesn’t work when coded in wordpress. any idea why?
thanks.
in my browser, i can link and open files on the intranet network with
file://host/file1.htm fine. I can not open a file with “http://host/file1.htm” on the intranet network.
Just tried it, didn’t work.
Any other ideas?
