title: Display an image from local network in HTML <img>
body: <p>I'd like to use an <code>&lt;img /&gt;</code> tag in HTML to display an image that sits on our local network (file system).</p>
  
  <p>We have, well let's just say a lot, of images stored on our network, so they're not being served up by a web server.</p>
  
  <p>The following work in IE, but not in Chrome or Firefox...</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;img src="\\10.10.10.10\share1\files\images\robin.jpg" /&gt;
  &lt;img src="file://10.10.10.10/share1/files/images/robin.jpg" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I understand it may be a security issue, but I'm working on a local web app and local network so I need to be able to get around this, specifically for Chrome.</p>
