Hi David/All,
Thanks a lot for pointing to the right direction.
So what you are saying is this.
<iframe id="iframe1" src="/public/docs/pdfPage.html?id=124&name=a
scrolling="no" frameborder="0">
and in pdfPage.html i embed the pdf? in the body tag let say?
Once i do that i can then use statements like
document.getElementById('iid').contentWindow.document.body.onReadyStateChange
=MyIframeReadyStateChanged;
is that so?
Please help me with some code snippet to get started. I am a complete
javascript/DHTML/AJAX noob.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Subhro.
