Linking to files on our network

Mark Austin

Is it possible to create a link on a page to allow us to open a document from a location on our network?

I don't want to attach the document to the page because the document is updated by various people on a daily basis but want to give a quick link in our wiki to open the document.

Hi Mark,

you can create a link like this:

[document.abc|file:///X:/path/to/document/document.abc]

But this only works in Internet Explorer, not with Firefox.

Best regards

That's great, thanks.

I have also now found out that it can be used in Firefox but you have to install a plugin in Firefox.

Hi, can you post FF plugin link? According me, this is a security question and access is driven by web browsers, most of them not allowed this. Simply you can not link to some local file from link provided by web application like Confluence or JIRA, eg. file:///C:/path/to/document/document.txt
