I have a local web for testing in asp.
The links for local file (ex: file:///c:/docs/test.txt) dont work,
nothing happends.

I dont know whats the problem, i qlready activate the "Allow active
content ... My computer" option in ie7.

Anyone knows how to solve this problem.
Thanks.

you should try replacing the : with a | and then it should work better.
example:
file:///F|/3Dtextflash_web.mov

works in firefox and IE6 & 7, netscape, etc. This is standard formatting.
