How to open pdf or fdf file through firefox 3.0.5?

Hi all,
I am trying to open a fdf file through firefox in linux machine by clicking the link on that it wants to open a fdf file from remote location. When I am trying to open then it will show an error message in error console like:
Security Error: Content at http://172.16.3.116:8080/ManuscriptScreening/source/journal/ProductionEntry.jsp may not load or link to smb://editor:edit*[email protected]/Copyediting/ELS/Manuscript_Screening/MS/RDTEST/02-Process/RDTEST-D-08-10245.fdf
Can any body give me a solution for this problem? I am using smb to fetch files from server. In my linux machine we are using Adobe Acrobat 5.0 professional version and also Adobe Reader 8. The link is available in jsp page.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

In my JSP link to FDF file is provided as follows.
newpath="smb://"+username+":"+password+"@"+serverip+"/MS/RDTEST/RDTEST-D-08-10245.fdf" ;
<a class ="one1" href="<%=newpath%>" target="dynamic" > RDTEST-D-08-10245 </a>My Requirement is When i click on the link it should open the corresponding fdf file in the browser by following the link provided.
But it is not working if i try in this way.
Can anybody suggest how to proceed with this issue.
Any other ways are there to open fdf file exisitng in server in Firefox in A Linux machine.
What settings to be made in firefox to support FDF or PDF features.
What prerequisites needed in Linux to enable FDF or PDF features.
I have Adobe Acrobat professional 5.0 installed in my Linux machine.
Thanks in advance.

Is your problem
-. That a new browser window doesn't open?
Solution: [Lookup the 'target' attribute|http://www.w3schools.com/HTML/html_links.asp]
- That your file content isn't streaming to the browser?
Solution: Your code assumes the browser understands and supports samba. This isn't always the case (IE for example). And you're providing a direct link to your file with the username and password - security concerns as well as possible portability issues. You'd be better off writing a [file servlet to download your files|http://www.google.com/search?q=file+download+servlet]

How to generate PDF using FDF file and the PDF form template (PHP)

Hi Folks,
I'm really sorry that I couldn't follow all the valuable discussions going on here, regularly. I need some immediate help.
I NEED A PHP SOLUTION. I'm able to generate FDF files using the PDF Form Template in PHP. So, I have a collection of FDF files, which seeks the PDF template, while opened and populates the template with FDF data. Now if I need to save this PDF file, I have to do it manually clicking SAVE option. But, I need to convert FDF to PDF in bulk. So, I need some PHP based solution. The PHP script takes the PDF template and the FDF file and merges them to generate a complete populated PDF file. I know it's possible, but don't know how. I've seen Adobe FDF Toolkit. But by default it doesn't show any guideline for PHP. Please help me to write this code. I'm a professional coder. I can understand your hints and tutorials. PLEASE HELP GOOD PEOPLE.

The only reason I am responding to this post is because the poster sent me a request through the forum message system asking for my help.
Although I did populate PDFs with FDF data generated by web forms a year or so ago, I have since abandoned that kind of solution. It was a big headache. I found it far more stable and flexible to use html, php and css to populate forms that are almost as nice looking as PDFs.
So my advice is, if you can possibly avoid going the FDF/PDF route, you will be better off.

How to open pdf in Acrobat Reader in Firefox window/Tab when both Acrobat Pro and Acrobat REader are

I would like to open pdf files in firefox using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
I have both Acrobat Pro or whatever its called and Acrobat Reader installed.
Presently going to firefox's tools, options, then selecting the file types option I cannot select any plugin to open my pdf's besides what's labeled as "adobe acrobat" but which executes an in-tab instance of Adobe Acrobat Pro, despite the ambiguous language on the plugin which I suspect stems from Adobe's evolving and confusing conventions regarding just what Adobe Reader, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Adobe Acrobat Pro really is.
Anyways, how to make pdfs open in-tab instances of Adobe Acrobat Reader while I have both the Reader and the Pro installed?
Is there a sepperate plugin I need or something?
Any help is very Appreciated

eh,
The problem w/ acrobat is that it takes forever to load
I was going to just use reader to read documents, and acrobat to edit, so I could gut reader of all the plugins worthless for 99.9999 of pdfs I use and it'll load fast.
foxit is nice, but won't open in-browser despite their continuing claims of supporting this feature.
That's so bizarre that adobe won't allow you to choose which one you want to run. Its installed as sepperate programs on the uninstall list, on the "open with" context menu, and w/ file associations, so why would it not be possible to only open pdf links w/ one?
Maybe its time to abandon acrobat and just use reader. There's much cheaper programs w/ all the same functionality as acrobat, so I guess I'll move on to those.
If anyone else has suggestions feel free to make em.

Opening PDF and PPT files without using BuddyApi

Hi, please excuse my newness.
I'm wanting to open pdf and ppt files through Director (I'm using 11.5) but I'm struggling with finding the right code to make it work. I saw that a lot of people are recommending Buddy Api. However I'm cheap and was hoping that there would be a way to open files without having to resort to using/paying for this xtra. Is there a reason why opening files in Director seems to be such a hassle?
Thanks in advance.

I'll also add that from my understanding, an unregistered version of Buddy API can be used in commercial applications.
Buddy API is a great Xtra and if you're going to be developing applications with Director, this Xtra will be a valuable purchase. Buddy Xtra is recommended a lot in the Director forums for a good reason.

How to open pdf files in browser using flex

hi,
my project is having a Document explorer wchich contains pdf
files,iwant to open it in the browser.can any one tell me how to
open pdf documents using flex programming(i tried with different
thing like swf's but my client wants only pdf formatt).

Another option is by calling a JSP page. This example will
open a pdf file into a new browser without displaying the download
"save" prompt.
Function to call the JSP:
private function downloadFlyer(event:Event):void {
var jspLink:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("jsp/downloadpdf.jsp?fileName=Fundraiser_flyer_2008.pdf");
navigateToURL( jspLink, "_blank" );
JSP code:
<%@ page errorPage="error.jsp" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%
//Get the parameters
String downloadFileName=request.getParameter("fileName");
String fileName = application.getRealPath("/downloads/" +
downloadFileName);
File file = new File(fileName);
if (!file.exists()) {
throw new IOException("File does not exist.");
// Get the size of the file
long length = file.length();
// You cannot create an array using a long type.
// It needs to be an int type.
// Before converting to an int type, check
// to ensure that file is not larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
throw new IOException("File too big.");
response.reset();
response.resetBuffer();
response.setContentType( "application/pdf" );
response.setHeader ("Content-Disposition", "filename=" +
downloadFileName);
//Prevent the Java error: "getOutputStream() has already
been called for this response"
out.clear();
out = pageContext.pushBody();
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
OutputStream output = response.getOutputStream();
try {
int curByte=-1;
while( (curByte=in.read()) !=-1){
output.write(curByte);
} catch (IOException ioe) {
ioe.printStackTrace(System.out);
} finally{
output.flush();
in.close();
response.flushBuffer();

How To Open PDF Attached file use CLIENT_HOST 11 g forms

How to open pdf file on client side at 11 g forms ?
when i open any attached (PDF )file on client side is not open those file open on server side plz guide me how to open those file on client machine using client host?
thanks

Where is the pdf you are trying to open? Is it on the server or the client? If the file is stored on the server then you can access it using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT assuming it is stored in a place that has a virtual mapping. For example:
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('http://server/someLocation/file.pdf','_blank');If the file is on the client then you need to configure your application to use WebUtil. Then you can do what Francois suggested.

Since I have connected my iPad with the MacBook through ICloud I have problems in Preview of opening PDF- and JPG-files. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Since I have connected my iPad with the MacBook through ICloud I have problems in Preview of opening PDF- and JPG-files. Does anyone have a solution for this?

I'm not sure I understand the connection between iCloud and this problem. Is it simply a problem of coincidental timing (ie, the problem happened after you set up iCloud)? If so, there's almost certainly no connection between these two events.
Where are you getting the files you're trying to open, and what specifically happens when you try to open them?

How to open PDF files on HP 32 tp

Please help. I'm trying to open PDF or mime files on my HP 32 bit tp
Thanks.

I know it may seem like a weird question, but are you running the default WebOS software on your TouchPad?
The reason I ask is that many folks may have bought a TP and then installed a copy of Android on it.
By default, your TP should be able to open PDFs and media files. What kind of error message or action is happening when you try to read a PDF?

Problem in opening PDF or FDF in Firefox?

Hi all,
I am using tomcat 5.5. In one of jsp code, I have used a hyperlink to open a PDF or FDF file placed in server .My requirement is while clicking the hyperlink the PDF or FDF file should be opened in browser window itself. The file is located in remote server connected through LAN.
For eg :
<html>
<body>
<%
String test= "//123.45.6.78/XXXX/YYYY/RD/RDTEST-D-08-01178.fdf";
%>
<a href="<%=test%>" target="dynamic" >test.pdf</a>
</body>
</html>When this jsp page is opened in IE and if I click on the link, PDF or FDF files is getting opened well in browser.
While clicking the link in Firefox browser, the path set in anchor tag is changed to
http://localhost:8080/ManuscriptCheck/\\123.45.6.78\XXXX/YYYY/RD\RDTEST-D-08-01178.fdf
Where http://localhost:8080/ManuscriptCheck/ is my Web application URL.
How to overcome this issue to have the file url as such without web application url appending before it?
Can Any body guide me. Thanks in advance.

The right way for doing this is Create a Servlet that will read the pdf files from the remote server and stream the file contents through the HttpServletResponse. You can find an example here.
[http://balusc.blogspot.com/2007/07/fileservlet.html|http://balusc.blogspot.com/2007/07/fileservlet.html]
The client browser will no longer be in need to have access to a given remote server.
