how to open a document when loading a web page [duplicate]

Question

I want to open a excel document while loading a web page but i don't know how. I tried this:

<script>
function myFunction() {
    window.open("file:///D://Files/doc.xlsx");
}
</script>
<body onload="myFunction()">
</body>

But it didn't work. I want to mention that it has to be done for IE8 and less.

So all the users have the file at that location? Or is this just for you? — epascarello

Add tag <script> to <head>

<head>
  <script>
   function myFunction() {
      window.open("file:///D://Files/doc.xlsx");
   }
  </script>
</head>
<body onload="myFunction()">
</body>
