Derek Harmon said:
Yes, when referencing an absolute filespec as a URL, use file://
to specify the protocol as being the local filesystem:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="file://A:\xmlproject\home.xsl" ?>
"A:\" is meaningful to Microsoft disk operating systems, so its
understandable Internet Explorer accepts it and others do not.
