Small note: it's file:/// and not file://. The RFC standard [*] states
that file://localhost/path is special case and 'localhost' can be
left out; thus file:///path

[*] RFC 1738 / Uniform Resource Locators (URL) / 3.10 FILES
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt
A file URL takes the form:
file://<host>/<path>
...
As a special case, <host> can be the string "localhost" or the empty
string; this is interpreted as `the machine from which the URL is
being interpreted'.
