Jive SBS Local Links

By Kevin Lagace Last update Feb 24, 2010 — Installed 92 times.

Script Summary: Rewrites Jive SBS hyperlinks to local/network resources so they work in Firefox.



By default:

"Links to local or network pages do not work. As a security precaution, Firefox forbids sites on the Internet to link to files that are stored in your local computing environment. These files may include files on your computer, mapped network drives, and UNC network paths." - Firefox Help

This script simply formats "file://" links within the jive-wiki-body-content to "file://///" (notice the extra slashes.) ;^)

This script *also* requires that the following user_pref is specified in your Mozilla Firefox prefs.js or user.js file:

    user_pref("capability.policy.default.checkloaduri.enabled", "allAccess");
