When you want a add a file to a task/event, You can add an url, but the file:// protocol is not supported.Only http and https are supported for the moment. I think in earlier versions (v0.2) it was possible...

FYI: Protocol support was limited with Bug 368858 on purpose.

In Trunk builds we might consider using Toolkit method openURL() (see Bug 384139) instead.

Lightning nightly build 6 feb 2008 seems to have rectified the problem - a file location can now be added as a link. Unfortunately, when the link is clicked, the location does NOT open.....should this be reported as a new bug, or as a continuation of this one? Web URLs open OK in the browser...

Flags: wanted-calendar1.0?
Hi. I doubt this is the right place for doing this but: - What about putting a "Browse..." box inside the "Attach" box ? This would just achieve complete functionnality, wouldn't it ?

Unfortunately, its more than just adding UI for adding a file. See bug 168680

(In reply to comment #9) Couldn't this bug be left open for adding links to the files and let bug 168680 focus on attaching them ? I think this bug has way higher chances of getting into 1.0 than bug 168680 and even if enhancement of link support is desired. Scenario: I want to add link to the file located on a network share and not attach it as it is being updated constantly.
