Okay, here's what I need to do:<br />
<br />
I need to make a link to a folder on the company's intranet that is on a different drive than our index page (and website.) Our index page runs off of our "H" server, but I need a link to a folder on our "V" server. I tried linking to it like any other web page, but it won't work. Any suggestions?<br />
<br />
Here's what I have as the link right now, but it ain't swingin':<br />
<br />
"a href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"V:\Folder_1"<br />
<br />
The desired destination folder is found at V:\Folder_1<br />
<br />
When I mouseover the link the status bar reads like this: file:///V:/Folder_1<br />
<br />
I think if I could get it to eliminate the "file:///" part it'd be okay, right?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
<br />
--jh<!--content-->This should work using file:///V:/Folder_1 as it is pointing to a file that doesn't reside on a webserver. Have you tried it out?<br />
<br />
Of course all users would have to have the V: drive exacty the same<!--content-->Yes, I've tried it in the development folder and it didn't work. The development folder is on the same server as the final website will be, so I assume it will work (meaning not work) the same way.<br />
