Menu is getting hidden behind pdf object in Internet Explorer.

Hi,
I am developing a web app, in which I am using object tag to show pdf files. The page is working fine in Chrome, Firefox browser and other browsers too except for Internet Explorer.
Problem:
The submenu options are getting hidden behind the pdf object tag in Internet Explorer(all).

2. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27655470/sub-menu-going-behind-the-pdf-using-html-object-only
I have looked into many blogs and forums but couldn't find the solution.
Please don't suggest the solution which is proposed in the below link,
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25760079/jquery-combobox-behind-embedded-object-ie-only
as the above link is for select drop down, and my submenu are based on ul li tags.
Guys, is it a known bug which is in IE?
Thanks

This should be a bug in IE, you can try submit it to the IE connect and wait for MS's reply.

  • Pop-Up Menu getting hidden behind Layers - HELP!

    I'm designing with layers instead of tables for the first
    time. I've just begun inserting vertical Pop-Up Menus as usual as
    part of my navigation buttons and when I checked it in the browser,
    I saw that the menu is getting hidden behind the separate layer
    below the layer that I have my navigation buttons in.
    Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Is there a way to set the
    properties to make one layer more prominent than other layers or
    something along those lines? Why would it be doing this in the
    first place?
    Thanks in advance!!

  • The plugin is gets called when we open any pdf document in internet explorer

    Hello,
    I have written plug-in( .api) for our use. But it's get called when ever I open any pdf document in internet explorer.
    I am using Adobe Acrobat 10. What could be the problem. I don't want to call plug-in methods on internet explorer.
    The plug-in method should call when am launch Adobe acrobat separately.
    Please help me to solve this issue.
    Regards,
    Sow

    Thanks for the response.
    I have written some function in PluginInit. I don't want to call the method when acrobat launches in IE. It should call only when acrobat launches in Desktop.
    How can I call the method only when it launches on desktop.
    Please help me to solve the issue.

  • Acrobat PDF reader for Internet Explorer may be unloading/unabling custom plugin

    Hi,
    My question is basically to understand what is happening in this situation so that I can find where is the problem and how to solve it.
    We have used Acrobat 6.0 SDK to develop our custom plugin. This plugin is basically wrapper to few basic tools  (note, stamp, text ) etc.. provided by Acrobat 6.0 SDK. We have also developed PDFViewer.dll to view PDF document within Internet Explorer. So when user load document within our website this PDFViewer loaded with the custom plugin and user can use those tools.
    We are installing this plugin under <Acrobat X>/Plug_ins/<Company Name>/MyPlugin.API.
    In our web site we are giving list of documents and when user click on a document it will load the PDFViewer and custom plugin. We are loading Acrobat.exe in advance so that we can load quickly.  Now the problem happens when user open any other PDF in different tab or instance of Internet explorer. ?How?
    Consider in a internet explorer user logged in our web site and then he/she can see let's say 10 documents. 1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3.pdf, etc...
    Now when user select document 1.pdf we are loading that PDF in the IE within our PDFViewer with custom plugin. (Here I have seen that behind the scene Acrobat.exe is loaded in the processed using task manager)/  If at this time if user opens another instance of Internet explorer or another tab and open a PDF document it opens PDF in the standard Adobe Reader PDF viewer for Internet Explorer resides at (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX).
    If at this time user goes back to our site and tried to work on 1.pdf our custom plugin works fine BUT if user opens any other document (let's say 2.pdf) the plug in stops working basically looks like it is not loaded.
    This issue only happens if user opens a document in another internet tab or explorer instance and open PDF which resulted in to open Acrobat Activex for internet explorer. If user opens a PDF document out side of internet explorer it is not creating any problem because at that time ActiveX does not loaded.
    So my guess is something is going on when ActiveX for PDF is get loaded into Internet Explorer.
    I want to know more what is happening and why it is happening. Due to this behavior our web site users can't use any other web site which opens PDF documents because then they have to log off and log back in our web site.
    Please we need immediate help.
    I am open to provide more details with screen captures.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Thanks.
    So I want to make sure this is because with Acrobat 9 - the new way to deal with PDF's?  Because as per my knowledge it was working fine with Acrobat 8.
    Moreover, if I am understanding correctly and I have tested too, the order is important here, right? If I will load PDF in IE first and then I will work on my web site it is not creating problem but if I will launch my web site first and then open PDF within IE in different tab it is creating problem because they are using same interface and when AcroPDF instantiating overriding and failed to load plug_in
    Here I have seen that both Acrobat.exe and AcroPDF.dll is using same Acrobat.dll pointing to same memory addresses and that's why problem is happening.
    IT would be great if you can provide any other way to "hook" adobe because the bottom line I have to use AcroExch.App from SDK.
    One last question, I have seen that if I am opening a PDF in Internet Explorer in a different tab (not in my web app) while pressing SHIFT key and the move to my web site and load different document it is working fine, so the question is what different is happening when we open PDF in IE with pressing SHIFT key and without pressing SHIFT key. IS AcroPDF.dll behaves differently while opening PDF with SHIFT key pressed?
    Thanks for all your help.

  • Unable to open pdf files using Internet Explorer and Adobe 9.1

    We are unable to open any/all pdf files in Internet Explorer 6 or 7 using Adobe Reader 9.1 on Windows XP SP2.
    The error message is that IE has a problem and sorry for the inconvenience.
    Clicking "OK" closes IE.
    We did not have any issue with Adobe Reader 8.1.
    What we did to date:
    1. Uninstall Adobe Reader 9.1
    2. Run Windows Clean Utility to remove any remnant of Adobe Reader 8
    3. Re-install Adobe Reader 9.1
    Any other suggestions?
    Need to have this upgrade.

    I'm having a similar issue. Prior to upgrading to Acrobat 9.1 I was able to view PDFs from IE 6. No longer. Instead I get a message: "Error opening document. File cannot be found."
    Help?

  • I cannot open any PDF's in Internet Explorer

    Starting just a few days ago, I can no longer open PDF files in Internet Explorer (IE 9). I'm not sure, but this could have started when I upgraded from Reader X 10.1.5 to 10.1.6.
    I can open PDF's fine in Firefox 19.0, just not Internet Explorer. I have tried numerous suggestions that I found in this forum and elsewhere:
    Turned off popup blocker.
    Changed the Internet option in Adobe Reader's preferences to both open PDF's in the browser and not to open the PDF in the browser. Neither option works.
    Tried running Internet Explorer in Compatiilty View for the websites where I am trying to view the PDF files.
    There was a suggestion to clear the Internet Explorer cache. I could not find that option (cache) under the Setting for IE. The closest thing I found was Temporary Internet Files, so I deleted them.
    I uninstalled Adobe Reader and installed an earlier version (10.1.4).
    I made sure that the plugin/extention 'Adobe PDF Helper' was enabled.
    None of the above has helped. I'm just about out of ideas. The fact that I can still open PDF's using Firefox makes this less than an emergency, but I would really like to get this resolved.
    I had some trouble searching this forum (Adobe Reader) thoroughly, so if there is another post out there that has some solutions (other than the 6 items I already tried) please fell free to post a link to it.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I just thought I would add some information (albeit vague) on how I solved this problem. I had another computer (laptop) that was not experiencing this problem. I compared the IE settings on the laptop with the IE settings on my desktop and changed all the settings on the desktop to match the laptop. I then restarted IE on my desktop and was able to open PDF files! Since it was working for me, I didn't go back and try to figure out which of the changed settings led to the solution to the problem. If enough people on the forum request it, I will try to go back and isolate the pertinent settings.

  • Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser.I can download pdfs using fire

    Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser. I can download pdfs using firefox.

    Gilad D,
    Thanks for the support.
    I would guess the plugin is enabled since when I use Foxfire as my browser, all pdfs download and are readable. (just doesn’t happen when I use IE as my browser, I get a blank screen with a small “x” in the upper left corner)
    I will try your proposed solution.

  • How to install Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer

    How do I install an Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer?

    If you install Acrobat 10 then it will automatically configure the PDFMaker toolbar in I.E. You can try repairing the software.
    Open Acrobat -> Go to Help menu -> Repair Acrobat Installation.
    Solution #2
    Select "Enable third-party browser extensions" in Internet Explorer Properties.
    1. Start Internet Explorer.
    2. Select Tools > Internet Options and click the Advanced tab.
    3. Select "Enable third-party browser extensions (requires restart)" and click OK.
    4. Close all Internet Explorer windows.
    5. Restart Internet Explorer.
    If still doesn't work then let me know what the version of I.E and Acrobat you are using.

  • Can't exit pdf file in internet explorer.

    When I open a pdf file in internet explorer, I an unable to exit the pdf file.  The only way I can get out of it is by shutting down internet explorer.  I am using internet explorer 11 with windows 7.  Is there a way to resolve this issue??

    Are you trying to open a PDF in a 64-bit version of Internet Explorer?
    If you don't know how to see the version - In Internet Explorer, choose Help > About Internet Explorer. (In some versions of Internet Explorer, select the Question mark in the upper-right corner to select About Internet Explorer).
    To switch to the 32-bit Internet Explorer, first exit 64-bit Internet Explorer. Then double-click the program icon for the 32-bit version:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

  • Unable to open PDF files in Internet Explorer

    Hello,
    One of our users has a problem with opening PDF files in Internet Explorer.
    Translation:
    Adobe PDF-document
    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Close Adobe Acrobat/Read and try again.
    The user is using Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard in combination with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 6. I reinstalled Adobe Acrobat (under an administrator account), deleted the local user profile and the problem is still there.
    Does anyone have an idea about this? The error message doesn't really say what is wrong. Adobe Reader is not installed.

    What exactly means "unable"?  Do you see a little x in a box on the top left of IE11?  If so, this may be the solution: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2716529

  • Access to pdf document in internet explorer

    Hi folks
    My task is to send specific opened pdf document in adobe reader (as plugin in IE) to some web service.
    I dont want to make plugin or adobe javascript, cos it would stay in adobe reader forever and i need that
    function only in one moment.
    Or maybe i want plugin or adobe javascript, but im very new in this stuff.
    Workflow is that customer clicks to download pdf document, it opens in IE, he signs the pdf (i have solve this
    already) and then click to my special button or do something and it sends the document back (for exapmple to webservice)
    My question is, is that possible at all?
    If yes, how?
    I c only something like thru "classic" javascript i get acces to pdf document via adobe reader API and then also via javascript send the opened document. But i have no idea how
    All help is very welcome, thx a lot.
    PS: this forum doesnt work in opera.

    Hi
    I didnt say abything about a email.
    All i need is somehow get document from opened adobe reader in internet explorer (or other browsers) and send it somewhere.
    I realize the javascript is bad way, i have access to pdf object, but i cannost send it from javascript. Javascript cant serialize the pdf object and send him to web service (no this is not email). So maybe the activex is better way, but i didnt find in adobe reader API something like getDocument() method i can call from web page.
    Very thx for answer.

  • How to install Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer after uninstalling IE 10 and installing IE 9

    Hello.  I need help installing Adobe PDF convert web page to pdf toolbar to my Internet Explorer 9.  I uninstalled Internet Explorer 11 and 10 because I could not open pdf files in IE 10 or 11 -- trying to open pdf documents froze/locked up Internet Explorer and I had to use Task Manager to exit Internet Explorer every time I tried opening a pdf document.  I have downgraded to IE 9 with the hope that I will have better luck.
    I am using Windows 7 operating system.  I have Adobe Acrobat X Pro installed on my computer.
    Now that I downgraded to IE 9, I've lost the Adobe convert web page to pdf toolbar.  It is not even in my choice of add ons in Internet Explorer when I go to Manage Add Ons.  How do I get the Adobe toolbar add on back?
    I lost my Adobe Acrobat X Pro disk so do not have that to help me in any way.  What can I do?
    Your help is greatly appreciated!

    If it is an issue of the AA X disk, you can download from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. Be sure to create a replacement CD in case it is not available in the future. You will still need your S/N for any reinstall. You can usually get that from the Adobe site as long as you registered Acrobat (http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html).

  • What happened to PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer?

    (Think I may have posted in the wrong forum -- Acrobat.com -- so I'm reposting here)
    I recently installed the beta of Internet Explorer 9 on my Windows 7 system. I liked it well enough, but the install caused my Acrobat 9 Professional toolbar to disappear. The only PDF item under "Manage Add-ons" is Adobe PDF Link Helper, which doesn't seem to do anything. I ran "Repair" several times from Acrobat to no effect. I then uninstalled the beta IE9 and restored IE8, then ran Repair again. No joy. The two icons in the toolbar (convert and convert rectangular region) are long gone. However my Office 2007 applications all have their Acrobat items present and they all work.
    I understand that the PDF toolbar has some problems with the 64-bit version of IE8, so I've tried using the 32-bit version, again to no effect.
    I can print to the PDF print driver, but that's a bit of a blunt tool and rather inconvenient. I just want to get the toolbar back. Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Keep in mind that IE9 is still in Beta.  They may have support for it once the full version is released.  I
    have IE9 Beta installed on my Win7 notebook and I will take a look to see if I see any options for the toolbar.
      I know that with IE9 they were trying to eliminate a lot of the "chrome" of the browser to streamline it like Google's browser.
      Firefox 4 Beta has done something similar to maximize website real estate.

  • PDF reader in Internet Explorer not working

    Hi All,
    I am having some issues with one of our computers.  When we try to open a PDF document from within Internet Explorer it only gives me the option to download the file and open it with the Adobe Reader Application.  I have verified that I have the check box for the reader checked under the Intenet section of preferences.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled and this does not change.  This is causing an issue with one of our web applications that generates PDFs and is quite annoying.  I have tried using a different profile and I do not have the issue on that profile.  However, rebuilding the profile for this user would be very painful due to all of the custom settings that are in place and I would only like to do that as a last resort.
    Cheers!

    Check to see if the Microsoft download left a Microsoft JVM installed or checked preference. Tools menu > internet options > advanced tab > look for any checked boxes in the Microsoft JVM section. Your Java 2 v1.4.2 checkbox should be near this. Restart.
