User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 I don't know if this is a bug or a security feature, but IFRAMEs will not load any file:// URLs. This does work in IE 5+, and I rely on it for preview of file upload (for instance). <html> <body> <iframe name="SubPage" src="file:///home/USER/SOMEFILE.html"> </iframe> </body> </html> Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Load the page with the file:// src IFRAME. Actual Results: The IFRAME remains empty. The same src URL supplied directly to the browser loads as expected. Expected Results: The IFRAME should have displayed the local file.
Mozilla does not allow this as a security feature. Please read the release notes. http://www.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla1.4/known-issues.html#psm *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 122022 ***
