External file link not working in FireFox
In the past I have found that the parsing of external file links is
pretty flexible - e.g. all of these formats work with Internet Exploder
(Ver 6).

[file://///machine/share/path/file.htm Click to view]

[file:\\machine\path%20with%20spaces\file.txt Click to view]

[file:///%5C%5Cmachine%5Cpath%5Cfile.pdf Click to view]

[file:///\\machine\path\test.txt Click to view]

[file://machine/path/file.htm Click to view]

However - they don't work with Firefox 1.0.7
Clicking the link has no result. You can right-click the link, and from
the pop-up menu select "copy link location" and paste the url into the
Address Bar - then it works OK.

What am I missing?
