Hello there,
As a part of a PHP-Mysql project, i need to know whether is it possible to hack the browser in some way so that it accesses and opens the local files using the anchor <a> tag.By default,the browser opens the local file ( image in my case )if we pass the direct address using the file:///.... syntax in the browser address bar like this.
"
file:///d:/Mail%20data/logo.png"
But if we pass the address in the href attribute of the <a> tag as shown below,it does not work.On surfing google,i came to know that it is a security issue so the browser does not allow access in way shown below.
"
<a href="file:///d:/Mail%20data/kp-carving-logo.png">click here</a>"
So is there any special way to accomplish this?
Thanks.
