This Java code,
"<a href='file:///" + curBP.get_build_path() + "'>" + curBP.get_build_path() + "</a>"
is outputted to the browser.
On the page, the HTML is:
<a href="file:///\\path\to\shared\file">Shared File</a>
However, it does not open the file. I’ve tried countless other combinations of slashes, but to no avail. In FireFox, it acts like a dead link and does not open the file. In IE, it works.
Any idea as to how to make it work in FireFox? Thanks!
Bad news: Firefox has closed a security hole:

It requires the user to modify a local file to allow file:// urls.
