is it possible to display a PDF in a browse?

[dcpeders]

Hi,

I have a NetWebBrowse showing photo images and it works great. It shows 3 photos across.

I am also saving some pdf forms that I need to show in the Browse also.

How would I also display a PDF image along with the photos? Is this even possible?

Thanks,

Dave Pederson

you probably need to convert them to an image first.

Dave,

Aye, it's possible. Can't speak to the wisdom of doing so though

Check out jQuery Media plugin (http://jquery.malsup.com/media/) which allows you to put a "div" on a page somewhere with _something_ in it.

Example code:

Code: [Select]

packet = clip(packet)&|
  '<div id="your-pdf" class="your-pdf">'&|
    '<button>Show/Hide latest PDF</button>'&|
    '<a class="pdf-file" href="http://'&clip(SITEURL)&'/'&clip(PDF RELATIVE PATH)&'"></a>'&|
  '</div>'&|
  '<script>'&|
    '$(".pdf-file").media({{width: 500, height: 800});'&|
    '$("button").click(function() {{ $(".pdf-file").slideToggle("slow"); });'&|
    '$(document).ready(function() {{ $(".pdf-file").hide(); });'&|
  '</script>'
This was written over 12 months ago. Probably needs <13,10>'s for readability. Not sure how many version of the media plugin since then. But it works with what I've got.
