I'm building a page that is going to often end in one more more paths to a location on our internal file server. It would be a nice plus if this could be an active anchor link so that users could just click on the link rather then any copying and pasting.
Just to be clear this is not a normal link to a HTTP web url. But rather an UNC path to a file server that has no relationship to the web server. I thought this would work if you put 'file://" into the anchor tag, but this does not seem to cut it. Example of the HTML <a href="file://%5C%5Cdprhq01%5CPURCurrent$%5Cpur2008%5Cload_logs%5Cload_log_22-Sep-2009_10h11m37s.txt <view-source:file:///>">\\dprhq01\PURCurrent$\pur2008\load_logs\load_log_22-Sep-2009_10h11m37s.txt</a> Cutting and pasting an example here, I note the escaping of the slash characters. Could that be a problem? How to not have that escaped in the HTML? Here is the CFML for that line. <a href="file://#remoteDir#\#datayear.name#">#remoteDir#\#datayear.name#</a> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
