[02/03] Loading PDF file from harddisk to web form

[phrajib]

Dear All,

How are u?

I am working in a project with C# & ASP.NET

Now I have some pdf files in a folder and the path of the files are stored in my database.

How can I run a pdf file by giving the address from my form. That means I want to load a pdf file from my harddisk space to a web form by clicking a button or something like that.

Please help me with code if u can.

Regards,

Rajib

You're not clear. Do you want to load the PDF from your own machine to the web server, or do you want a PDF from the web server loaded from a web form?

If it's the second, use Response.Redirect(), but I still can't understand you fully.

I want to run the pdf file from my own harddisk.

If it is possible with Response.Redirect(), then please give an example.

Sorry for too late to response.

In that case, use javascript.

document.location.href=document.getElementById('txtLocationOfPDFFile').value;

Where txtLocationOfPDFFile is a textbox where you enter the location of the PDF on your hard drive.

I am not familier with javascript. Please give an example so that I can use it.
