corbin Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Errr..... Hyperlinks are extremely basic, so there shouldn't be problems lol.... "does not work"? What you mean? Will you tell us the full HTML? (Maybe take out the href="" part if you're paranoid.)

inaba Posted May 28, 2008 Author Share Posted May 28, 2008 the code is: <a href="\\ebddhnt004\group02\folder" target="_blank"> the location is actually a network drive. IE finds the folder correctly. But mozilla shows error: The requested URL /\\ebddhnt004\group02\folder was not found on this server.

corbin Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I'm not sure how it works, but \\ is probably treated like a stream-thingy.... (Can't remember what they're called at 3:40AM) Kind of like ftp:// or http:// just \\. So, if that's the case, maybe it's registed in IE, but not in FireFox.... You could map the drive and then do like... href="z:\ebdd....."
