Is there a way to put CSS-div content over a embeded Adobe Acrobat Reader session?
I've tried with CSS z-index: -1; on the iframe Acrobat Reader launches in but no luck.
Any suggestions?
You should be able to do it by overlaying the reader with an <iframe>, just as the approach with other plug-ins and <select> boxes. Also, setting the wmode parameter of the embed tag (if you are using one) to transparent. Not sure about the last one, but it works for Flash and Silverlight.
You can check a demo of the IFRAME approach (only under IE) at this demo page. (Sorry for the shameless plug, it's the first example that I think of)

I was given an interactive pdf file, it has a slide with a small slideshow (3 slides) when looked at that particular slide. There is a play button and stop button at the bottom that appears/disappears if you move your mouse over it, and we can choose to play it or stop it. I don't know if its a video though. But, there is some interactivity in that slide. I tried to embed this pdf in an HTML file iframe. It works for the most part but the interactivity doesn't work in chrome: I have Version 53.0.2785.143 m of chrome.
However, not sure if by fluke or what, in IE 11 its working. Any ideas on how this can be made to work on chrome? I am using a simple iframe
<iframe src="file://C:\Users\svboll\embed-pdf\Interactive.pdf"
style="width:718px; height:700px;"
frameborder="0"></iframe>
IE 11 uses the Adobe Reader plugin (if available and it sounds like it is) to display the PDF in the iFrame so you'll see the interactivity play correctly there. Edge doesn't and neither does Chrome. Chrome uses it's own built-in PDF viewer which doesn't support most interactivity. For interactive PDF, you simply will not be able to create a consistent experience of PDF in an iframe across browsers, platforms, and devices. This is not a limitation of PDF, it's a limitation of the viewers in that they have not fully implemented the PDF specification.
i have a flex project that runs in using flash player 11. What i am trying to achive is to have a tab of my project which, when loaded displays a web page within the tab. I do not want to naviagate away from my project but display it within my tab layout. Is this possible? i have found plenty of info on how to do this using air but nothing with regards to my flex project not using air.
thanks
No, this isn't directly possible. The HTML and StageWebView components would do the trick, but they're AIR-only.
What you can do is call a javascript function using ExternalInterface to load your desired web page in an iframe positioned above your Flex area.
See Div above iframe with flash content for more info on putting an iframe above your flash content area.
if you have to do, try to use flex-iframe, but is not a good way to use iframe in flex, it will have many mask problems.
Hi
I have a flash file. Which contain images. I want to place an ALT tag for the animated flash. Is it possible to place an ALT tag for flash?
Please give me a solution
Thanks in advance
Alternative content for objects (for when they fail to load) goes between <object> and </object>.
If the Flash does load, then any alternative content needs to be exposed to accessibility APIs from inside the Flash object. Screen readers, braille displays, etc can then access it.
WebAIM has a guide to making Flash content as accessible as possible.
Is there a way to create a mini window in flash that contain an HTML web page?
Not open in new window!
Thanks a lot!
No, unfortunately not. It is possible in AIR, but not in the web player.
You can sort of hack it by putting an iframe above or below (provided the flash is transparent) the flash object. This question is similar. But this "solution" is usually not very good.
so this is a problem:
when I'm using flash on website, and creating some dialog box which should be over all other elements I use just proper z-index for dialog box (in IE6 it's needed to set transparent wmode for flash). But flash programmer don't want to give me flash file and suggested to use iframe linking to his website.
on my website there is iframe
in iframe there is a flash object
when showing dialog box flash is over dialogbox (not depending of z-index and even wmode that I set by firebug)
I can't get touch with flash developer (anyway he sad that flash object will still remain on his website) so maybe you have any solution?
and weird thing:
- on some pc's it's working properly, one some not. what can be the reason?
Because Flash is being rendered by a plugin, I don't think changes made to the wmode property in Firebug will have immediate effect. You'll need to add the wmode="transparent" in the source and reload the page.
