Link to network share via UNC \\Dice\Test: file://///Dice/Test/. (Works in Internet Explorer 7, but not Firefox 1.5.0.9 and not Opera 9.10.)
Link to network share mapped as drive Z: file:///Z:/. (Same as above, if mapped. Example 1 doesn't require the mapping to be in place.)
Link to local file: file:///C:/ipconfig.txt. (Always fails, if web page is not a local html file.)
Try this now:
1. In Windows, go to Start -> Run... and in the dialog, type:
cmd /k ipconfig /all > C:\ipconfig.txt
This will create a file for testing.
2. Paste this into your web browser:
file:///C:/ipconfig.txt
This should display the file.
3. In the wiki, make a link to:
file:///C:/ipconfig.txt
View the wiki, and click on the link.
If nothing happens in step #3 (which is behavior different from step #2), then you are experiencing a problem described at: < id="9601">. I find that I can replicate this problem with Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.9, and Opera 9.10. I find that I can work around this problem in Internet Explorer, but not the other two.
