Why?

If, trying another aproach to solve this problem, I insert https://mydomain.com/nw/file?mode=v&doc=232173&ver=1 in a text field (for CCK) and I choose to display it as a link then the ampersand (&) is changed to & amp; and the URL doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Displaying the contents of a text field as a link will add the anchor tags around the text. It won't recognize that you've typed in a URL. I think there is a CCK module that adds support for a real URL field. Which would let paste in a link as you have above, and have it turn into a link to the site.

When I choose to display the textfield as a link in the Views options, the textfield is converted to a link but some characters are changed. The ampersand (&) is changed to the ampersand entitie (& amp;) so that the url stop being correct.

On the other hand, the link module for CCK which allow us to insert a link says that https://mydomain.tesa . . . . (which is an intranet) is not a valid URL.
