Bruno clarifies:
You can set up an interaction between a PDF and an HTML page,
but it won't work with every browser/reader.
Also, you need specific JavaScript in the PDF you want to
communicate with.

I have two examples:
(1) http://itext.ugent.be/playground/agreement.html
Here, you can open a course picker by clicking on
the button in the HTML page that embeds the PDF.
Select a course, click OK, and the course will appear
in the PDF.

(2) http://itext.ugent.be/playground/talk_to_html.html
Here you have an HTML page with an empty HTML form field
and a PDF with an empty form field and a button.
Enter some data in the PDF field, click OK and the data
will be sent to the HTML field.

 >> If it is possible, please send me the sample code snippet.

It is not recommended to use these features in a
production environment. If you're an expert, you'll
be able to extract the sample code snippets from
the sample PDFs and HTMLs of examples (1) and (2).
If you don't know how to extract the code snippets,
please accept Paulo's answer:
