I am using Firefox and trying to execute AVI files with a relative link of the path and this command does not work:
[[my file|file://filename.avi]] but with absolute path is works fine [[my file|file:///c:\my documents\filedir\filename.avi]] any hint about how can I resolve it? Is it a way to set a variable with the path where the files are located? and to use this variable when naming the file to be openned? Thanks.
