My Wiki is resident on an external hard drive, and therefore I do not have to specify a drive. I am creating it using Chrome.
I have 2 files in a folder called "Para 62": "John Status.pdf" and "Sales List.xls" The syntax that I use to link the pdf file is as follows: <a href="Para 62\John Status.pdf"target="_blank">John's status report for June</a> The link appears as: John's status report for June And when you click on it, the pdf automatically opens in a new tab. All good. Now, when I use this same syntax for the Excel file: <a href="Para 62\Sales List.xls"target="_blank">List of Sales </a> I see: List of Sales But when you click on it, the "Save As" screen appears....asking the viewer where to save the file "Sales List.xls" If I remove the [ target="_blank" ] phrase, you still see the link. Clicking on it asks you if you want to leave the Wiki page. If you say yes - it takes you to the same "Save As" screen. Note: in Wiki Classic , I used this syntax: [[List of Sales|.\Para 62\Sales List.xls]]. I was able to launch the Excel file successfully (but the Wiki was opened was using IE). What am I doing wrong in TW5? Note: the user requires that this Wiki must be able to operate within IE and Chrome.
