User · Answer

may be you can do by using AJAX or jquery...
just send that file url on one page and then open like normally open pdf file in that page and use ajax.

1)so as soon as user will click on the button. then u call that function in which u above tast. So by this way there will be only one page and by that you can show as many pdf without refreshing page.

2) if u don't have many pdf and if u don't know then just upload that file on google docs and then just put the share link file....and then just use ajax or jquery.

i prefer jquery if u don't have use AJAX.

Yes you can    See the code from the following thread from 2007   PDF within a DIV   lt div gt       lt object data  test pdf  type  application pdf  width  300  height  200  gt          alt    lt a href  test pdf  gt test pdf lt  a gt       lt  object gt   lt  div gt    It uses  lt object gt   which can be styled with CSS  and so you can float them  give them borders  etc    In the end  I edited my pdf files to remove large borders and converted them to jpg images

You cannot  and here is the simple answer   Every media asset poured into the browser is identified by a mime type name   A browser then makes processing determinations upon that mime type name   If it is image gif or image jpeg the browser processes the asset as an image   If it is text css or text javascript it is processed as a code asset unless the asset is addressed independent of HTML   PDF is identified as application pdf   When browsers see application pdf they immediately switch processing to a plugin software capable of processing that media type   If you attempt to push media of type application pdf into a div the browser will likely throw an error to the user   Typically files of type application pdf are linked to directly so that the processing software an intercept the request and process the media independent of the browser
