I know the code to link to another page on the same site the code would be:

<a href=&quot;samesite.htm&quot;>Another Page</a>

And to link to another site the code would be:

<a href=&quot; Site</a>

But is it possible to link to another destination that isn't on the same site? For example, on my server I place my web site on C:\Inetpub\Website but I would like to reference something in C:\My_Files by using a hyperlink from C:\Inetpub\Website, is this possible?

Thanx

you can link to anything you want online. (exluding secure issues)
if you did
<a href=&quot; other sites javascript file</a>
you'll go there and open it.

Yes you can, but you have to create a vcirtual directory in the IIS to point to the dir where you have the files. You give an alias to that VD, and the you acess as it was a real dir inside your Inetpub/ Anikin
