[Advanced-java] URL & protocol

[Marco Ferretti]

Hi there, it's me again...=0D
I have a question that concerns the URL class and the protocol.=0D

Suppose I want to open an URL to get a file on the hard disk...=0D
I supposed the protocol would be "file://"=0D
I tried to open a file in mozilla and what I get is file:///=0D
Ie doesn't even show the protocol. =0D
A component I found on the net opens it with "file:/"=0D
 Now I am a little bit confused ...=0D
