Link on Web to file on server

I have a link on the web that gets a file from the server thru a

but I can only open the file by right clicking it and saving it. How do I get it to open thru a new window by simply clicking it.

The link is displayed thru formula on a computed field

Thanks

to get a new window, set a target on the link bylink

or use javascript window.open(…)

It also depends on the file type if it can be opened,

this has to be configured in the browser settings and an

application for that file needs to be installed, otherwise

you will always get only the option to download…

BUT

I don’t think that it will work to open a file on the server using a link starting with file:// for web users. This will only work directly on the server, not for a remote user.

You should put the file on the web-server and use a link
