I am creating an http server (only used within a corporate intranet), which shows links to internal network documents. Example:
<a href="file:\\\T:\documents\policies.pdf">Corporate Policies</a>

It is known, in the company, that T: is a mapped network drive to a common network server, with many company documents.

The problem, is that when this link is published from my http server (http://10.0.0.10/index.html), Netscape doesn't allow the user to click on the link.

I can include in "prefs.js" the following line:
user_pref("security.checkloaduri", false);

But, I would like to ONLY do this for pages coming from the internal http server (http://10.0.0.10). Is there a way to have the security "CheckLoadURI" set to false ONLY for a specific host?

FYI: Internet Explorer has a feature called "Security | Trusted Sites", where I can add the local http server (10.0.0.10), and then it allows the user to click on these links, and everything works. I can't find a similar feature in Netscape.
