Using LyX, pdflatex and the hyperref package I'm trying to produce a PDF that contains links to locally-stored files. What I want to do is to click on a link to an HTML file in the PDF and have it start my browser (Firefox) and then load the required HTML file.

The following, in ERT, almost works, but clicking on the link produced in the PDF starts three instances of Firefox, only one of which shows the required HTML file.

\href{file://F:/Directory1/Directory2/index.html}{name}

This is a menace, can anyone suggest better ways of inserting links to local HTML files in PDFs? Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Regards,
Nick.
