Most of the stuff I've read says that it is a security feature built in to web browsers but that doesn't necessarily appear to be the case given what I found using just the html file.

What is lame is that this issue has taken up so much time that I could have spent building the wiki.

I do appreciate everyone's help and input, though. Thanks!
Does the machine you are on (or the DokuWiki application installation if using VMware) and the user/system accounts that DocuWiki uses (php maybe?) have permissions on the network/domain to access the share?

Without seeing the error, or knowing your setup that is the most probable reason I can think of that it doesn't work in the wiki but will as an HTML file. I have never really set up a wiki (or Apache/Php etc) on anything more than a stand alone Ubuntu box without any sort of network authentication or interaction.
