I am trying to create a button (or if I have to a hyperlink) that opens a local file. I am having trouble doing this.

I created a function
function openfile()
{
window.location("C:/Documents and Settings/USERNAME/My Documents/Personal/somePDF.pdf");
}

Then create a button

<input type="button" value="somepdf.pdf" name="button1" onClick="openfile()" />

But this doesn't work. How do I do this? What am I doing wrong?
