Hi Mike,
From your description, you're trying to use TreeView control to open some
PDF file via hyperlink settings, however it doesn't work, correct?
According to the code snippet you provided, you're using the TreeView Node
to link some local file (such as c:\....\xxx.pdf) on client user's
computer. I think this is the problem here, IEor some o ther browser
doesn't allow the web page to load or link local files on user's client
machine. This is due to security consideration, because if we allow such
operation, it may open a big security hole which can let server-side
script
load discretionary files on client computer.
If the PDF files are on server-side, you can use a server http based url
to
reference them. For client-side files, if you do need to load them, I
suggest you consider use some activeX control to do such things.
Sincerely,
Steven Cheng

Subject: Open pdf file in the main frame over a TreeView Control
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2008 13:42:56 +0200
Hi all
I have a frameset with two frames. One is navigation (TreeView 2.0) and the
second is the main frame.
How can I use a TreeView Control to open pdf's in my main frame. I already
used the navigateurl and the target properties. but nothing happens. no pdf
is opened. If I enter an url like
www.live.com it works without a problem.
do i have to enable something?
that works
TreeView1.Nodes[0].Target = "main";
TreeView1.Nodes[0].NavigateUrl = "
http://www.live.com";
that doesn't work
TreeView1.Nodes[0].Target = "main";
TreeView1.Nodes[0].NavigateUrl = "C:\\Users\\testAccount\\Desktop\\t.pdf";
thanks for your help
mike
