[COLOR=tomato]But I'm afraid I cannot use "http://(file location)" in my case.

Let's take an example, I'd like to link a file that is under my C: drive, but the root directory of my website is under my D: drive. Then can I link that file under the C: drive on my website? Thanks~THanKs~~[/COLOR] :rolleyes:

@BrainDonorJun 20.2003 — Try using the IP address of the other server? Just a thought.

Are you using your computer as a personal web server for your website? If not, then you can't link to a file on your computer.
