Html: link to a local file

It's normal. Put your file in your WEB-INF directory, and then make a relative link.
<a href="javascript:;"
onClick="window.open('./myFile.pdf');">
file</a>

If you created the site with an editor, it's easier to use the "create a hyperlink" option which will automatically set the correct link for you. I believe this is a matter of absolute and relative addresses.

De manière générale, en Java, il existe <%request.getContextPath()%> qui te mettra la base de ton appli. Donc, si ton document est dans le répertoire PDF, tu feras un <a href="<%request.getContextPath()%>/PDF/tonfichier.pdf">>

What you are asking is actually not possible... Your hard drive is not a server, so we cannot access your PDFs from there.
Unless you host them online, there are no other solutions, regardless of the PHP or JavaScript codes you use...

your computer does not have a fixed IP address assigned to be accessible from the internet
It’s better to review the routing problem and public or private IP address

"Apart from hosting them online, there are no other solutions, regardless of the PHP or JavaScript code you use..."

Fab is mistaken..

It is possible, but there is something important to understand: when the site is on the Free server, it has nothing to do with your PC anymore. If you want to publish a site online and allow access to files on your computer, you need to:
1) have your computer turned on!
2) have your computer accessible from the internet, which depends on your modem configuration, your firewall... there are a few things to do before it works and is secure,
3) make sure that your computer can be found, or more precisely your IP address, which is possible for example with the no-ip service.

If this solution interests you, let me know, I can tell you more.

You need to give the name of your position instead of D:/.

Hello,
I think I have a solution for this:
you just need to use the no-ip software (http://no-ip.com). Of course, you need to sign up on the site first and then run this software (your IP will be the name you created, example: le-pc-de-x.no-ip.org). Then, you'll need a small software that doesn't take up any space called TYPSoft FTP Server, which you'll configure to locate your PDF file. Don't forget to create an "anonymous" account so that the software can allow you to read the PDF whenever you want without having to identify yourself (without letting others access your hard drive). After that, just indicate the address on your web page!

HELLO!

I came across a discussion.

I don't know if you can help me: I want to upload a PDF online so that when I send an email, including the link to this PDF, the recipient can read the PDF by downloading it (to avoid having a very large email)

Here's what I want to achieve:

MENS FALL 2008
http://www.jeepneyclothing.com/pdf/jeepney_fall08_men.pdf

please let me know how to do it if you have any idea!

see you!

Greetings to you, is it possible to find the link to a server?
Then, can we create a connection with our search page?
If so, thank you for your help.

Best regards.

I'm experiencing a similar problem. I have a PHP project that I want to run from an embedded server on a CD (the project plus the server on the CD). That part works. However, in my project, I have a Java applet that needs to write to a text file contained in its folder. So for this to work, there are two solutions: either I copy the HTML page (which contains the applet) and its associated applet and text file to the hard drive, then from my index.php, I call this page (thus opening an HTML file located on the hard drive from the server), or I find a way to modify the Java code to only move the text file so that the Java applet is on the CD and the text file is on the disk (I've been trying in vain for two days...). Does anyone have an idea?
