Sorry, I haven't been dealing with this for some time.
I tried to pull the PDF file from windows explorer into Firefox - the
result (file://///server/folder/file.pdf) opened well. I tried to copy
that into HTML as follows:
<a
href="file://///server_name/some_folder/some_file.pdf">test1</a><br>';
<a
href="https://172.25.33.31/some_folder/some_file.pdf">test2</a><br>';
<a
href="file://///172.25.33.31/some_folder/some_file.pdf">test3</a><br>';
Only the 2nd one procudes "Bad Request (Invalid Hostname)", the other
(1 and 3) do not no anything. Appearently there is a difference for
opening it by a link and the mouse.
So far I have not found solution for this.
