Opening a local network file using \\server\subfolder\filename notation?

[maskedMan]

I'm having a doozy of a time figuring out why I can't open a file on my network. First, I tried this:

var uri = '\\servername\subfolder\filename.fla';
fl.openDocument(uri)

this seemed not to work because the \ characters were acting like escapes in my string, so I tried this instead:

var uri = '\\\\servername\\subfolder\\filename.fla';
fl.openDocument(uri)

This gives me the correct string, but then when I attempt to use fl.openDocument(uri) I get the following error:

"Invalid URI: \\servername\subfolder\filename.fla"

I've checked to see that typing this filename into a browser works, and it opens the document in flash. What could be going wrong with my filename in this jsfl command?

In case anyone else needs the answer, here it is:

fl.openDocument('file://server/subdirectory/fla.fla');
