Is there a means to display PDF documents within articles or is it not possible at the moment

Keep up the great job!!

There's no way to do that currently, and no plans that I know of.

over at tufat, there is a flash PDF reader that will display it right in your article.

I think the reader cost $5 though.

EDIT: I didn't see it there. I did see it somewhere though. I will see if I can find it somewhere real quick.

Have you tried something like:
<object data="URL TO YOUR PDF.pdf" type="application/pdf" width="900" height="750" ></object>

YOu may have to use an Iframe.

Apparently, the flash PDF reader isn't officially released yet.

The little snippet worked fine for the time being, appreciate it, thanks

I am looking for the same thing.

I was able to use Iframe.  I think this will do.

Looks like that works good bluedevilâ,,¢, you may want to try the auto-resizing iframe code that G6 posted some time back... I use it on some articles/iframes and it works well.

EDIT: Just happened to have a copy handy.  ;)

<script type="text/javascript">

//Input the IDs of the IFRAMES you wish to dynamically resize to match its content height:

var iframehide="yes"

var getFFVersion=navigator.userAgent.substring(navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Firefox")).split("/")[1]
var FFextraHeight=parseFloat(getFFVersion)>=0.1? 16 : 0 //extra height in px to add to iframe in FireFox 1.0+ browsers

function resizeCaller() {
var dyniframe=new Array()

var tempobj=document.all? document.all[iframeids] : document.getElementById(iframeids)

function resizeIframe(frameid){
var currentfr=document.getElementById(frameid)

currentfr.style.display="block"

currentfr.addEventListener("load", readjustIframe, false)
else if (currentfr.attachEvent){
currentfr.detachEvent("onload", readjustIframe) // Bug fix line
currentfr.attachEvent("onload", readjustIframe)
}
}
}

function readjustIframe(loadevt) {
var crossevt=(window.event)? event : loadevt
var iframeroot=(crossevt.currentTarget)? crossevt.currentTarget : crossevt.srcElement
if (iframeroot)
resizeIframe(iframeroot.id);
}

function loadintoIframe(iframeid, url){
if (document.getElementById)
document.getElementById(iframeid).src=url
}

if (window.addEventListener)
window.addEventListener("load", resizeCaller, false)
else if (window.attachEvent)
window.attachEvent("onload", resizeCaller)
else
window.onload=resizeCaller

</script>

<iframe id="myframe" src="http://www.yoursitehere.com/page_to_display/" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" style="width: 100%; display: none;" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe>

wow!  Thats one big code hehehehe..

i was using this one:

<IFRAME src="http://www.anyurl.com/" width="100%" height=1050></IFRAME>


Thanx il try that

It helps in that for most cases it will do away with the double scroll bar effect... in most cases being the key words because a few times I've had to change the scrolling="no" to scrolling="yes" in order to get it to work correctly.
