This guide will show you how you can link to your local drives or drives on a Local Area Network for example.
Didn't work on latest tests on WinXP/IE6.
Basic Code:
The code to link to hard drives uses the basic HTML link code:
<a href="file:///c:/">Access C Drive</a>
Result: Access C Drive
You can access any drives you wish with this method simply by replacing the drive letter:
A Drive, C Drive, D Drive, E Drive, Fictitious T Drive.
You can also use a form button instead of a text link. Simple place the link address into the form action:
<form action="file:///c:/">
<input type="submit" value="Access C Drive" />
</form>
Result:
Where can I use this? I use this as part of an active desktop. I use this same code to link to some important local and network drives which I need to access on a regular basis. It's better than a standard shortcut. Just one suggestion!
