PDF IFRAME add-on for Plone
Project description
ruddocom.pdfiframer: correct handling of PDFs in IFRAMEs
This Plone add-on adds a bit of JavaScript that turns all served IFRAME
s
which embed a PDF into a clickable icon the user must tap or click before
the PDF is actually embedded and rendered.
This not only saves you bandwidth, it also prevents a nasty behavior on
mobile devices when embedding PDFs using IFRAME
s — instead of the PDF
being displayed, a download window pops up (yes, even when the server sends
a Content-Disposition: inline
HTTP header).
Thus, visitors to your site can see the PDF onscreen with one click, and mobile visitors can download the PDF by clicking / tapping on the icon.
Note that, by default, Plone filters IFRAME
tags out of content types.
Use the HTML filtering control panel configuration screen to allow IFRAME
s
to be used on your Plone site.
Setup
It's a standard Plone add-on. Add to your Plone eggs list, buildout.
