B4J Library [BANanoPDFView] JQuery In-Browser PDF Viewer

Ola

Well, this basically does what it says. It uses the built-in PDF viewer to view your PDF files.

Just pass it the URL of the pdf file and the width and height of the HTML element you want to render to and whalla!

Ive tested it on Edge, Firefox, Opera, Chrome

FireFox

Chrome

Edge

Opera

Reproduction

0. Add the reference files in AppStart

'view
   BANano.Header.AddJavascriptFile("jquery-3.4.1.min.js")
   BANano.Header.AddJavascriptFile("jquery.media.js")
   BANano.Header.AddJavascriptFile("jquery.metadata.js")

1. Add a HTML element that you want the PDF document to render to.

'get the body of the page
    body = BANano.GetElement("#body")
    'empty the element
    body.Empty
    'create a div to hold the pdf document
    body.Append($"<div id="basic"></div>"$)

2. Run the PDFView

'initialize the viewer
    Dim view As PDFView
    'use the id of the iframe
    view.Initialize("basic")
    'set the path of the pdf file to view
    view.SetHREF("./assets/themash.pdf")
    'set the height
    view.SetHeight(800)
    'set the width
    view.SetWidth(800)
    'process the viewing action
    view.View

Have Fun!
