What can this extension do?Edit
If you use interwikilinks to local Windows shares with this format "file://///windows_share", Linux and Mac users are not able to follow them.
This extension changes the link according to the client OS to "smb://windows_share"
This extension also allowes links to Windows shares with spaces in Path. Spaces must be replaces with %_ in the link. It is a workaround for the %20 problem.
UsageEdit
For Links to your local Windows share you have to add a link to the interwiki Table. e.g.: (windows_share, file://///windows_share/$1, 0, 0
Please refer interwiki.
I have installed the Extension:SpecialInterwiki for that purpose.
A link to your windows shares in Wiki \\windows_share\file.txt will look like:
[[windows_share:file.txt|File]]
Firefox setupEdit
MS WindowsEdit
On MS Windows machines, Firefox need to enable local file links:
- manual: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Links_to_local_pages_do_not_work
- Addon: [1]
LinuxEdit
On Linux macines we have to register smb: protocol handler.
Open "about:config" and add the following settings:
network.protocol-handler.expose.smb = false (Typ: boolean)
network.protocol-handler.external.smb = true (Typ: boolean)
Next time you click an smb: Link firefox ask you for an application.
- For Gnome:
select "/usr/bin/gnome-open". gnome-open does not mount the location. So ensure sat you have opened the window share with nautilus before.
- For KDE:
we have to make a workaround with a script because firefox does not allow do add additional parameters
##!/bin/sh
kfmclient exec $1
Testet with:
- Firefox 3.6.8 on Ubuntu 9.10
- Firefox 3.5.10 on OpenSuse 11.0
MAC OSEdit
