Kristin/Eric, I've tried linking to files in the way you describe and can't get it to work. Had slightly more success in IE than Firefox, but couldn't get the file to open, so ultimately a failure. Guess instiki doesn't support it at this stage.
Also, can anyone advise why the clean up and delete orphan pages doesn't seem to work for me - still have the orphan pages : ( Cheers, Richard. On 2/22/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I've worked on a similar issue with MediaWiki in the past and it can be difficult to work with IE and Firefox as they have slightly different ways of doing things. And in firefox, this behavior is disabled by default. See http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=file+links+in+firefox for more details.

I'm pretty sure I've done that before - but I can't find a handy example on mine. [[\\server\folder\file.doc]] I think.
