Access local files from web site   
Hello

I have a project where we want to store a client's file links (e.g. 
C:\mydocument.doc) in a database.

We then want to return a list of hyperlinks, whose target address is a link 
to the files (we are using the file protocol as in 
file:///c:/mydocument.doc). 

We are facing a problem in IE where the browser refuses to open the save 
dialog for the file.  It seems that support for this feature is not available 
in IE. In Firefox, we have overcome this issue by setting up an appropriate 
security policy for our web site. This has worked exceptionally well, to the 
point that we do not have any issues with our site and firefox. 

 Is it possible to have something similar for IE, that is, can we make IE 
ignore the links come from a remote site and open the files automatically.

 Thanks in advance for your help.
