Display PDF using an AJAX call

by

Why do you load it via AJAX? Why don’t you load it in an IFRAME that you generate when you need it. The standard browsers plugin will display it then inside that Iframe.

$('#link').click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault(); // if you have a URL in the link
    jQuery.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        processData: false,
        url: "aaaa.p?name=pdf",
        data: inputxml,
        contentType: "application/xml; charset=utf-8",
        success: function(data)
        {
            var iframe = $('<iframe>');
            iframe.attr('src','/pdf/yourpdf.pdf?options=first&second=here');
            $('#targetDiv').append(iframe);
        }
    });
});
