Re: [xwiki-users] Adding link to file on local area network

" file:///C:\path\to\resource\Instructions.txt " that is broken path. DOS used slash for command line options instead of dash on traditional systems. So when folders were aadded to later DOs versions, they had to use back-slashes. But outside of DOS-Win-OS/2 world the regular slashes are used still. Try converting all the back-slashes into proper ones. Also read https://www.google.com/?q=backslash+string+escaping+c I think your string just contained non-printable special code as a result of wrong slashes used. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Adding-link-to-file-on-local-area-network… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
