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:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)   
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

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.

You can compare it to the one in the original post, I didn't change it. Things like width and height specified as CSS now.

All I can say is it works for me. PDF file is also on my own https server. sure it won't show if loaded from http link.

Make sure you edit the post so it rebuild the cache if you didn't make a new post or truncate the postparsed table.
