First of all, the smart way is to treat file:// urls the very same as
other url types and let the system handle the differences.
And maybe that's why it doesn't work for you: the OS treats those
file:// urls differently because of security concerns. You have to set
the security settings accordingly.

Also, what are the exact properties and values you've set and what
exactly happens or does not happen?
