BBCode: Embed PDF Files (No JavaScript/No iFrames) (BB Code)
Developer Last Online: Mar 2021 
This is <embed> BB Code to embed a PDF file into your forum. The user needs a compatible PDF Reader such as Adobe's free PDF Reader. If they don't have one they will still see a link to view the PDF directly.
I am aware <embed> is not "proper" HTML but it works fine in all major browsers (IE/FF/Chrome/Opera/Safari) while <object> was not working for me in IE. If you prefer to keep to strict HTML guidelines and don't care about IE users then simply change the two instances of "embed" in the replacement code to "object". This has been confirmed working in the latest releases of IE, FF, Chrome, Safari, and Opera. I am also aware there are at least 2 other PDF BB Codes out there... I believe this implementation is better because one of them uses JavaScript and another uses an iFrame and relies on a 3rd party website (google) to display the PDF. My implementation uses no JavaScript and does not reply on any other websites. Demo: http://www.juot.net/forums/showthread.php?t=46803 Add a new BBCode Title: Embed PDF BB Code Tag Name: pdf Replacement:
Example: [pdf]http://www.qapla.com/ju/PDFOpenParameters.pdf[/pdf] (I suggest using your own example if possible.) Use Option: No Button Image: (optional) Remove Tag If Empty: Yes All Disable Options: Yes Overall this tag acts a lot like the built in [img] tags. Please mark as installed if you use this.  Check My Profile for other BB Code enhancements. They work on all versions.

pdf bbcode for Internet Explorer users
I have changed the bbcode so that users that see a blank pdf will have a link to click to view the file.
-----IF THE PDF IS BLANK CLICK HERE TO VIEW.----- ~~ok my bbcode settings are now as below: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Title = embed_pdf BB Code Tag Name = pdf Replacement = <div align="center"> <p align="center"> <p><a href="{param}">---------------IF THE PDF IS BLANK CLICK HERE TO VIEW.--------------- </a></p> <br /> <object type="application/pdf" data="{param}" width="800" height="900"> <param name="src" value="{param}" /> <embed src="{param}" type="application/pdf" width="800" height="900"> <p><a href="{param}">Click here to view or download the file directly.</a></p> </object><br /> </embed> </p></div> Example = [pdf]http://www.baymeadowscommunitycouncil.net/pdf/visionplan.pdf[/pdf] Description = Allows you to embed a pdf file. Use {option} = Yes Remove Tag If Empty = Yes Disable BB Code Within This BB Code = Yes Disable Smilies Within This BB Code = Yes Disable Word Wrapping Within This BB Code = Yes Disable Automatic Link Parsing Within This BB Code = Yes ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This seems to work for now until a better solution is found. Anyone that sees a problem with this please let me know and show me a better way of doing this. Thanks

Hey Joe, your pfd bbcode was working great on a vb4 site before it was changed to https.
Any idea what would cause it to stop functioning? The acp is not https and the pdf bbcode example works fine there, thoughts?

Try pdf from https source. And check in browser if it blocked http scripts. And if it is, what happens if you allow them.

Weird, but confirmed same issue on my own site. I guess browsers just don't trust pdf files, even if loaded over https. I suppose its because these days PDF files can submit data on their own outside of the security of the rest of the page it is loaded on. I haven't checked yet for any fix, too many other things to deal with on the https conversion. But if I find a fix I'll post it.

Seems changing to an <object> tag instead of embed makes it work... There are some other small changes to the replacement code:
