That would work, but I'm not sure I recommend it. Unfortunately, there's no way to disable CheckLoadURI per site right now, but I'm looking into overhauling CheckLoadURI very shortly (for Mozilla 1.4b) and relaxinfg some of its restrictions.

The only way I know is the following (untested):

- Configured with caps, http://10.0.0.10 has the right to set
preferences
- When clicking to the file:/// -link, the pref
"security.checkloaduri" will be  set to false
- the file will be downloaded
- the above pref will be set to true

I am creating an http server (only used within a corporate intranet), which shows links to internal network documents. Example:
<a href="file:\\\T:\documents\policies.pdf">Corporate Policies</a>


It is known, in the company, that T: is a mapped network drive to a common network server, with many company documents.

The problem, is that when this link is published from my http server (http://10.0.0.10/index.html), Netscape doesn't allow the user to click on the link.

I can include in "prefs.js" the following line:
user_pref("security.checkloaduri", false);

But, I would like to ONLY do this for pages coming from the internal http server (http://10.0.0.10). Is there a way to have the security "CheckLoadURI" set to false ONLY for a specific host?

FYI: Internet Explorer has a feature called "Security | Trusted Sites", where I can add the local http server (10.0.0.10), and then it allows the user to click on these links, and everything works. I can't find a similar feature in Netscape.
