Thank you Thomas, 1) After research, with firefox in Tools, console of errors I saw the messages of acces interdiction to the file FILE:///d:/test/fichier.pdf Apart from xwiki, locally, I have access to this file 2) My basic solution to keep safety and to have the access (for beginner like me) : I went up Wampserver for windows Only Apache is active - In Wampserver tool, Apache section, - In Alias Directories , - In add alias * A specific window opens - In first the name of alias : test Result => http : //localhost/test/ - After the directory of redirection : d:/test/ This manipulations create one association between http://local/test and d:/test/ with the good rights 3) In xwiki for my test http://localhost:8080/xwiki I create links with web link Ex.: http://localhost/test/fichier.pdf Firefox and IE7 open the good file d:/test/fichier.pdf And the file stays an external file Thank you for your assistance JP -----Message d'origine----- De : users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:users-bounces@xwiki.org] De la part de Thomas Mortagne Envoyé : vendredi 18 avril 2008 11:46 À : XWiki Users Objet : Re: [xwiki-users] External LINKs with IE and FIREFOX Hi, On Fri, Apr 18, 2008 at 1:51 AM, <jp.ga(a)aliceadsl.fr> wrote: and What do you call "last version" ? 1.3.2 ? Anyway, I can't reproduce your problem with firefox 3b5 on linux (ubuntu 8.04) on 1.4-SNAPSHOT or 1.3-SNAPSHOT. I tested your exact text ([ test > FILE:///d:/test/fichier.pdf ]) and I have a correctly formatted XHTML. If I click on link it does not open the file but it's a default browser security and it has nothing to do with XWiki. -- Thomas Mortagne _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
