Hi,
I have a web page that only I see, and I want to link to a PDF file on a
mapped drive so that it will open in Acrobat.
I have tried variations on the following:
$storelink = "<a href=\"file://G:\\".$filename.".pdf\"
target=\"_blank\">PDF</a>";
and the link keeps coming out as:
file:///G:/575991.pdf
So I have 3 x '/' and a '/' where I want a '\'.
Can anyone tell me how to code this to get it right?
MTIA
Cheers
George
