Handle FTP Uri in Attributes.

Permanently deleted user

May 16, 2013 23:35

I have a map service with attributes that are URIs.  One is HTTP scheme, the other is FTP Scheme.

In the attribute table, the HTTP Scheme becomes a clickable link, the FTP does not.

I've tried adding the URIs to the feature description like this

<a href="{FTP_FILE_NAME}">{FTP_FILE_NAME}</a><br />

 

<a href="{HTTP_FILE_NAME}">{HTTP_FILE_NAME}</a>

The HTTP_FILE_NAME attribute works, but the FTP_FILE_NAME shows an error in the log shown below.

Questions:

1. Is there another way to handle FTP URIs?

2. Is there a way to modify the viewer to handle them?

 

Thank you,

Scott

  My suspicion is silverlight does not permit FTP calls as they are considered unsafe. The way around this is perhaps having a small webpage application that takes the HTTP request and forms an FTP request using javascript?
