Ingolme Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I don't know what you mean. I don't see the text "gbmcppfs001" anywhere in your code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inspector-71 Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 it's the internal server in link HREF="\\gbmcppfs001\traffordpark$\Trafford Site IMS Manual\main.htm" ALT="Trafford Park" TITLE="Trafford Park" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Well, that's a network link, which isn't part of the HTTP protocol. It might work is you append file:// to the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inspector-71 Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 You got me on the right track mate thanks. Linking to network shares is turned off in firefox by default. To get round that I used a UNC path file://///servername/share/file.extas described hereThanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
