How do we open/save pdf file in iframe from server folder

Question

User-1024101449 posted

I have many link buttons in my page.

When i click the link button, it should open a file from specific server folder and it should show in iframe.

The challenging of the task is, when i open the pdf, then i want edit the pdf file (in iframe), then it should save n the same server folder.

Is it possible to open/save in same folder even if i get the read/write access server and pdf..?

Hi gani7787,

From my point of view,it seems not possible to edit your pdf in an iframe.

When you read your pdf in an iframe, it is rendered completely.

I think you could not do anything on it except read it.

Hi,

Depends on your editing application (a browser doesn't know how to edit a PDF file, at best it uses ActiveX or whatever to allow that) which would have to support  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebDAV (and so it needs to be configured on the server side as well)

You'l likely need to support an explicit download/upload depending on your audience.
