in this example the target link is known! (he puts directly the adresse of the pdf document)

in my example, the page contains a list of link ti pdf files (whitch are stored from a data base)

how can i display them in the webviewer ?

Is it your html file ? If so, adjust the links accordingly, as above

my php web page request the database to store and display informations (the liste of application files) in the webviewer component.

whene i click on download file the webviwer cant't display the pdf file !!!

if the file is an image (jpg, png ...) the webviwer displays it, but not for pdf file!!

As inidicated above in the link to Taifun's pdf page, modify the links generated in your php page to include:

"https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=" before the url to the pdf

This works

nothing!!

that show "aucun aperçu disponible" !

[TimAI2]

Can you provide a link to one of your pdf files ? (as generated by your php page)
