This feature works in IE and Netscape. I have noticed some web sites where the images do not show in Fire Fox, I believe this is most likely the reason why. I will add comments to this when I find some public examples. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.create a image tag <img scr="\\fileserver\folder\filename.jpg"> 2.view it in IE, then in Fire Fox. 3.Scream and swear! Actual Results: Blood pressure rises! Expected Results: viewable image. display image in html.

If you open a web page through the HTTP protocol, you cannot link to local content with the default security settings. Moreover, links to local content should start with file:// and use forward slashes as the path delimiter. Windows-style paths are incorrect. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Links_to_local_pages_don't_work for more details.
