Display pdf in a popup window

Hello @all,
i want to convert a smartform to pdf and show the pdf in an second window or in a popup. When i click on a button in the application, a new window with the pdf should be open. Is this possible to show the pdf in a second window or in a popup. Can anybody help me?

I think you need to create one window and display pdf in it.
Try following code:
1) Create one Window
2) Create the view to be displayed in popup (add pdf in this view)
3) Embed the view created in above step in the window created in first step.
4) Create following attribute in the Component controller:
     I) Z_WINDOW type ref to IF_WD_WINDOW
      Mark the attribute as u2018Publicu2019.
Code to open Window in Popup
DATA: api_component    TYPE REF TO if_wd_component,
l_window_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_window_manager.
api_component    = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
l_window_manager = api_component->get_window_manager( ).
Create window and pass parameters
CALL METHOD l_window_manager->create_window
    EXPORTING
      modal        = abap_true
      window_name = 'ZC_SO_ALV'
      title        = 'Test Popup'
      close_button = abap_true
    RECEIVING
      window       = wd_comp_controller->z_window.
wd_comp_controller->z_window->open( ).

How to display a PDF document in popup window

Hi,
I have a requirement where i need to display a PDF document to be obtained from a virtual repository and then display it on a popup window.
Thanks
DS
PS: any code snippet or link explaining the above will be helpful

Use should the ShowProperty servlet in a link or javascript, e.g.:
<a href="/mywebapp/ShowProperty/path/to/pdf/node
target="someOtherWindow">pdf</a>
pdf
Or, with dyamic node retrieveal (from search or contentSelector,
assuming node is the pdf Node):
<a href="/mywebapp/ShowProperty<cm:getProperty node='<%=node%>'
name='cm_path' conversionType='url'/>
target="someOtherWindow">pdf</a>
<a href="javascript:window.open(
'/mywebapp/ShowProperty<cm:getProperty node=<%=node%">"
name="cm_path" conversionType="url"/>',
'SomeOtherWindow',
'height=400,width=400,scrollbars=auto,resizeable=yes');return false;">

Display pdf in a new window

I need to display the pdf in a new window on click of a button in the iview. The pdf is fetched as an array of bytes from an RFC. It displays correctly, but in the same window. Pls see the extract of the code:
To Write
writeText(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response, byte[] pdfResult)
try{
Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4);
javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse myResponse = request.getServletResponse(true);
myResponse.setHeader ("ContentDisposition", "inline;filename=\"ShortCV.pdf\"");
myResponse.setContentType("application/pdf");
OutputStream os = myResponse.getOutputStream();
os.write(pdfResult);
PdfWriter.getInstance(doc,os);

UUT serial number is not displayed in batch results popup window?

UUt serial number is not displayed in batch results popup window. I am using TestStand 2012 SP1 f1 (5.0.1.66). I am also using Prebatch callback and setting up
Parameters.ModelData.TestSockets[index].UUT.SerialNumber with the UUT serial number. I have used the exact sequence file with TestStand 4.2 (4.2.0.134) with no problems.

Sorry for my late reply I was away for work. I actually revisited the code that I implemented with TestStand 4.2 (4.2.0.134) and it is showing the exact problem. Sorry for misleading you. however the UUT report is showing the correct serial number for each unit. This would be something that is nice to have but not critical for my project. I am basically auto discovering all my UUT so instead of scanning the serial number I read it from the UUT memory so there are a lot of steps in my PreBatch call-back but they are all related to reading the UUT serial number. Once I read all the UUTs serial numbers I set the following in a for loop:
Parameters.ModelData.TestSockets[Locals.For_Loop_Index].UUT.SerialNumber =StationGlobals.UUT_Serial_Numbers[Locals.For_Loop_Index]
I tried to implement my a simple PreBatch with only a for loop and an array of serial number and I ended up with the same issue. So I am suspecting that the batch report is getting the serial numbers from a different variable and that variable is set when you run the batch option without the PreBatch call-back.
Kind Regards,
Oshana

Linking PDFs to open popup windows

I am working on a project at work in which we have PDF graphics in-line within a web page. I want to add a link to one of the graphics to call a custom javascript function that is in the page to display a special popup window. First off, is this possible? And secondly, if it is, how do I tell it to call the javascript that is in the html page?

Displaying PDF in new Browser window

Hi all,
I have a question about displaying a invoices in pdf format in a new window. I read several threads about this, but I haven't been able to solve my problem.
I'm using following code:
append the pdf to the response
cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response(
    i_filename = 'test.pdf'
    i_content   = lx_pdf
    i_mime_type = 'application/pdf'
    i_in_new_window = ' X'
    i_inplace       = 'X' ).
The content (lx_pdf) is retrieved from a smartform, via the function module for the smartform in question, after which I convert the OTF Data (JOB_OUTPUT_INFO-OTFDATA) to XSTRING using FM SCMS_TEXT_TO_XSTRING. The returned data (buffer of type xstring) I use for afore mentioned method. But all I get to see is the following:
//XHPLJIIID    0700 00000000001

The text is correct, but it is not displayed as PDF in new window, and of course I'm not interested in all the formatting codes in front of every line??
I should be possible to display a pdf in a new browser window without having installed everything needed for Adobe Interactive forms, or isn't it??
Kind regards,
Micky.

Hi Micky.
If you have the spool number of the printed billing document you can use
component WDK_SPOOL_TO_PDF in order to display spool as PDF.
Just transfer spool number and format to default inbound start up plug.
Cheers,
Sascha

Adobe Reader won't display PDF in IE Browser Window

I am using Adobe Reader XI and Internet Explorer v. 11.0.9600.17280.
I have tried uninstalling and re-installing Adobe. I've also checked IE Add-Ins and all Adobe Reader Add-Ins are enabled.
However, you're poorly written software STILL WILL NOT display PDFs in browser any more.
I need help, but since you're software is so horrible, you do not offer typical technical support.
PLEASE HELP!

My company is having the same problem and I was hoping for some kind of final explanation.
The fix of resetting the Internet Explorer settings works for a time, then it later it has the problem again. Our company has a reporting site which needs the documents to open in the browser to allow for drill down(generating another report based on a link in the document), so the reports have to be in the browser not a separate Adobe Reader Window. We have tried other fixes on the Web like the TabProcGrowth=1, but still the problem happens later.
Our users are tired of resetting their Internet Explorer settings every week or more. As this has worked in all previous versions, I would agree the issue probably lies in Internet Explorer or at least partly in Internet Explorer, but we need some way to keep the files opening in the browser rather than a separate Reader window. Any additional thoughts or fixes by anyone would be greatly appreciated.

Problem displaying PDF file in new window.

Using NetBeans 6.5, Internet Explorer 7.
I am using the code example from BalusC at the site:
http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/05/pdf-handling.html
I am having no problem reading and displaying the PDF file, but it displays it in the same window,
not a new window and it overwrites the current page, so I can't use the back arrow to fetch the page that is overwritten.
I am using a commandLink to fetch the file.
Does anyone know why I am not getting a new window or tab for the display?
The jsp portion for the link is:
<h:commandLink action="#{MainPage.linkAction3_action}" id="linkAction3"
          style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; left: 280px; top: 0px; position: absolute"
          target="_blank" value="Insurance Document"/>The "MainPage.linkAction_action" method just makes a call to the display function:
    public String linkAction3_action() {
        sb1.setMessage("");
        dsb.setFilePath("C:/");
        dsb.setFileName("Insurance_Summary.pdf");
        dsb.downloadPDF();
        return null;
    }And the downloadPDF() method is basically a cut and paste from the BalusC site;
    public void downloadPDF()
        // Reference:   http://balusc.blogspot.com/2006/05/pdf-handling.html
        // Prepare.
        FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
        ExternalContext externalContext = facesContext.getExternalContext();
        HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse) externalContext.getResponse();
        File file = new File(getFilePath(), getFileName());
        BufferedInputStream input = null;
        BufferedOutputStream output = null;
        try {
            // Open file.
            input = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(file), DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE);
            // Init servlet response.
            response.reset();
            response.setContentType("application/pdf");
            response.setContentLength( (int)file.length());
            response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "inline; filename=\"" + fileName + "\"");
            output = new BufferedOutputStream(response.getOutputStream(), DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE);
            // Write file contents to response.
            byte[] buffer = new byte[DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE];
            int length;
            while ((length = input.read(buffer)) > 0) {
                output.write(buffer, 0, length);
            // Finalize task.
            output.flush();
        catch( Exception e )
            System.out.println( "Error displaying file.");
        finally {
            // Gently close streams.
            close(output);
            close(input);
        // Inform JSF that it doesn't need to handle response.
        // This is very important, otherwise you will get the following exception in the logs:
        // java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot forward after response has been committed.
        facesContext.responseComplete();
    }

1) window.open will open a new window and call a servlet.
window.open ("http://path_to_yourservlet/PDFServlet", "newWindowName");
if you ant to pass some values from your web page to the servlet you can pass as
window.open ("http://path_to_yourservlet/PDFServlet?param1=value1&param2=value2", "newWindowName");
2) The servlet will fetch and display the pdf file.

Issue with displaying ALV in a popup window

Hi Experts,
I am trying to create an popup window with an ALV in it. TO display the ALV i have defined the component usage for SALV_WD_TABLE component.When the ALV is displayed for the first time it shows up correctly with required data. When i try to display ALV popup again only the popup window frame gets displayed the ALV is missing from the popup window.
If i refresh the main component by clicking browser refresh buttion and then click for ALV popup dsplay i get the correct popup display the first time and then agin the same issue.
Has anyone else come across this issue before. All your suggestions, responses are welcome.
Thanks,
Vivek

HI,
My popup window has only one embedded view, the TABLE view of used component SALV_WD_TABLE hence i cannot modify the TABLE view.
I tired putting the following code for context node initialization in both the the methods WDDOONOPEN and WDDOINIT of the window which has the embedded view. But it dosen't make any difference i face the same issue even with these changes.
types: begin of ty_belnr,
         belnr type vbkpf-belnr,
       end of ty_belnr.
data: lt_belnr type standard table of ty_belnr,
      lo_node type ref to if_wd_context_node,
      lo_element type ref to if_wd_context_element.
select belnr
from vbkpf
into table lt_belnr
where ausbk = 'UC'
   and bukrs = 'UC'
   and gjahr = '2011'
   and usnam = sy-uname.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
   lo_node = wd_context->get_child_node( 'DOC_NUMBERS').
   lo_node->bind_elements( new_items = lt_belnr[] ).
endif.

Display pdf only in browser window

Does anyone have custom code or javascript that will force a
pdf to open in a user's browser window rather than follow their
browser setting? I don't want the user to have the option of
downloading the pdf and launching Reader.
Thanks.

Impossible.
1) To be able to read the file it has to be downloaded to the
user's
machine.
2) To view it directly in the browser, there has to be a
plugin
installed and activated, which is not always the case.

Popup window opens in the second page - plz help gurus.

Hi All,
I'm calling a transaction through ITS. There is a hyperlink in a report brings up PDF in the popup window. Popup window comes up in the second page of the report after closing in the first page of the report. Popup comes in all the consecutive pages of the report once I click on the hyperlink. This is really frustrating. Pls let me know if i need to do any configuration to avoid this problem.
Thanks,
Kumari

Hello Kumari,
are you using the SAP GUI for HTML (webgui)? Normally, no hyperlinks are used except on documents inside an HTMLviewer (like in TX TRIP), or when Drag & Relate is activated.
I suppose the link is part of a document that is shown in an HTMLviewer. Though this document does not belong to the ITS or the SAP GUI for HTML it uses ITS's URLs to address a new page or document. But, with this URL the status of the ITS or the application does not change, thus showing the popup over and over.
If you have a tool to trace the HTTP protocol you can check for the URLs that are send on a particular action. I
Best regards,
TJ
