due to some unavoidable reasons I need to disable Google Chrome's "Chrome PDF Viewer" and enable the adob PDF viewer. I want to do this from C#.net and asp.net Code. I know it is not possible directly as it is related to change setting's on a client machine but I am ready to ask permission from user if s/he wants to disable the default viewer.
The reason behind this work is that all my PDFs created in iTextSharp are not functioning properly in Google Chrome due to Chrome's default reader. Not all user's can find and disable the plugin manually, hence I want it to be done by code. I need to know that how we can disable the default PDF viewer. AFter this my problem will be solved automatically. pls give me any suggestion about code
Aslong as your embedding the pdf in a html file the following might work for you....
Try changing the type of the embed to type="application/vnd.adobe.pdfxml", I know this isnt what your serving but when I tried it on a normal pdf the plugin didnt choke and showed the pdf using Adobes plugin without having to disable the default (Chromes) reader.
I had to test this on a version of the Adobe plugin that is a bit old as Im on dialup and couldnt be bothered downloading a 50 something meg file just for testing ;). So you should test it on the newest plugin.
Hope it works out for you.
EDIT:
Heres an example page of how to make the pdf take up the full screen like if you just pointed straight to the file...
http://pdfobject.com/markup/examples/full-browser-window.html
...its also the page I did my test on.
Google chrome plugins doesnot change the programming way so just inform to the client like a pop up message
<script type="text/javascript">
function CheckPlugin()
{
var is_chrome = navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('chrome') > -1;
function findPlugin(ext) {
var thisExt, findExt;
for (var n = 0; n < navigator.plugins.length; n++) {
//alert("n value"+ navigator.plugins.length);
for (var m = 0; m < navigator.plugins[n].length; m++) {
//alert("m length:"+navigator.plugins[n].length);
thisExt = navigator.plugins[n][m].description.toLowerCase();
// alert("this exten"+thisExt);
findExt = thisExt.substring(0, thisExt.indexOf(" "));
//alert("findexes"+findExt);
if (findExt == ext)
return (true);
}
}
return (false);
}
if (is_chrome ==true) {
//alert("chrome browser");
if (findPlugin("acrobat")) {
//alert("Adobe Acrobat pdf viewer");
return true;
}
else {
alert("please disable the chrome pdf viewer and enable the Adobe Acrobat PDF viewer \n Please follow the steps:\n 1.Open the new tab 'chrome://plugins/' type the Address. \n 2. Click the Enable link in 'Adobe Acrobat' field. \n 3. click the Disable link in 'Chrome PDF Viewer'. \n 4. Close the tab and you can open the PDf files in chrome browser.");
return false;
}
}
else {
//alert("not chrome");
}
}
</script>
In hyperlink write like this
<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server"
NavigateUrl="~/PDFFiles/AGENCY PROFILE APP.pdf" onclick="return CheckPlugin();">Agency profile app</asp:HyperLink>
I think it is more help full.
I use iTextSharp, and Chrome was causing issues when both the Chrome PDF and Adobe were enabled. The submit button would send FDF data back to the server even though the form specified sending the data as XFDF. Setting ContentType to "application/vnd.adobe.pdfxml" solved the problem.
Kudos to PAEz.

How to run same page in browser, when I stopping and re running a page its displaying in new tab and i don't want to display in new tab and I want to display in same page and I'm working on windows form application in c# .net.
Can u please suggest me any one.
The below code I have written like this way.
Process.Start("microsoft-edge:http://www.google.com");
Process[] Edge = Process.GetProcessesByName("MicrosoftEdge");
foreach (Process Item in Edge)
{
try
{
Item.Kill();
Item.WaitForExit(100);
}
catch (Exception)
{
}
}.
Based on my research, I could not find a way to use Process to display the same page in the Edge.
However, I find a alternative method to do it.
First, please install nuget-package Selenium.WebDriver and Selenium.WebDriver.MSEdgeDriver.
Second, please copy the msedgedriver.exe from the packages (path:packages\Selenium.WebDriver.MSEdgeDriver.91.0.864.37\driver\win64)to the bin\debug folder and rename it to MicrosoftWebDriver.exe
Finally, you could try the following code to open the Google page to replace the Bing Page in the same tab:
var driver = new EdgeDriver();
// Navigate to Bing
driver.Url = "https://www.bing.com/";
driver.Navigate();
// Navigate to Google
driver.Url = "https://www.google.com/";
driver.Navigate();
I am using aspx to initialize the whatsApp click to chat feature to share a link.
The aspx code is :
The link was working fine. I was able to share the link. But in the recent months i am not able to share the link as i get a message from whatsapp in my mobile displayed as
Couldn't open link
Screen Shot:
NOTE: I am able to share from web browser but not from my mobile.
Is there anything wrong in the syntax or has whatsapp updated their feature, but i dont think so as their docs are still having the same info ?
Edit: The output url looks like this in chrome inspector:
https://wa.me/?text=https%3a%2f%2fwww.website.com%2fblog%2fPageName.aspx%3fblog%3dtitleword-your-titleword-system-using-titleword%26id%3d10%26temp%3dq
For computers, you will want to use this link...
https://api.whatsapp.com/send?text=YourTextHere
Otherwise, if you use wa.me, you will get an error page, unless you have the phone number included. For example, this links to an error: https://wa.me/?text=SomeTexttoShare
Typically, you don't know the number, and you want the user to specify. In that case, you MUST use the api.whatsapp.com domain.
I tried the same link in different android browser(FireFox) and it was working fine.
For chrome i changed the link to this -> whatsapp://send?text=
My code:
string WhatsappShareURL = "whatsapp://send?text=" + Request.Url.AbsoluteUri;
hlWhatsappMobile.NavigateUrl = Server.UrlEncode(WhatsappShareURL);
For Computers:
I use this link -> https://wa.me/?text=
My code:
string WhatsappShareURL = "https://wa.me/?text=" + Request.Url.AbsoluteUri;
hlWhatsappWeb.NavigateUrl = Server.UrlEncode(WhatsappShareURL);
Then i toggle them in jquery:
$(document).ready(function () {
if ($(window).width() < 520) {
//Show mobile link
}
else {
//Show Web link
}
});
I've got a webpage I want to hook in to my Adobe Air app. It's running JavaScript, so I can't open it in the app, but I'm trying to launch it in the default system browser.
Here's the code that's supposed to be launching the page:
public function beginModule():void {
var loader:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
var gameURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("file:///path/to/file.html");
loader.navigateInSystemBrowser = true;
loader.load(gameURL);
}
I've also tried using
flash.net.navigateToURL(gameURL);
but that had no effect.
Every time I hit the above method, that block executes but nothing happens other than a quick cursor change-- no browser opened, no change in the app. What am I missing here?
Before you start, check if the HTML page is properly running in the browser.
To open a HTML page in flex, use the HTML tag: <mx:HTML></mx:HTML>
Something like this: https://snipt.net/anishnair/flex-show-html-page/?key=28838d54ac287180032dee000ce33a74
Thank you.

Simply use :
navigateToURL(url,"_blank");
to navigate to the url in the web-browser.
I was looking for any way to create web page,so that user wont be able to copy content from my web page. i.e. User wont be able to select the any text present on the webpage.
Let's assume i am working on asp.net
Any interesting ideas to accomplish the task ?
Ultimately you can't.
If you disable the ability to select text, the context menu or even just the copy option from the context menu users will still be able to see your content.
If they can see it they can copy it:
Take a screenshot.
Take a photo.
Type the text they see into Notepad.
Dictate the text into a recorder.
It's not worth the development effort and you won't stop the determined copier. All you'll end up doing is annoying your legitimate users.
Add value to your site so people want to keep coming back rather than just taking content and running. This could be:
Allow user generated content to expand on what's there.
Update content regularly so it's always fresh.
You can use user-select CSS3 propertie
HTML like this :
<span class="protected">Datas you wants protect</span>
And the correspondant CSS :
.protected {
-moz-user-select:none;
-webkit-user-select:none;
user-select:none;
}
See my example : http://jsfiddle.net/DoubleYo/RPv4q/
This solution is not cross browser but work fine with firefox and chrome/safari
EDIT : advanced user can copy your content with view the page source, make pdf or print your page, and some people mention firebug, fiddler.
If you send down any text the user will be able to see the source, so disabling copy and paste by any method will not really help stop the determined copier.
The most effective approach would be to render your text in to an image on the server and send down the image and not the raw text, but before you do that there are several downsides to consider: 1) You will require capacity on your server to generate the image. 2) The data load will be higher than just text and compresion will be less effective. 3) You may also loose some caching options.
Is there a particular reason you don't want the user to copy the text, perhaps if you can provide more details other approaches may be possible?
Try this
<html>
<head>
<script language="<strong class="highlight">javascript</strong>">
function onKeyDown() {
// current pressed key
var pressedKey = String.fromCharCode(event.keyCode).toLowerCase();
if (event.ctrlKey && (pressedKey == "c" ||
pressedKey == "v")) {
// <strong class="highlight">disable</strong> key press porcessing
event.returnValue = false;
}
} // onKeyDown
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="aForm">
<input type="text" name="aText" onkeydown = "onKeyDown()">
</form>
</body>
</html>
When someone visits your website they receive the html/css/images/JavaScript that makes up the bulk of your site. So they already have your Content, as most browsers cache this too, to allow quicker browsing.
Read more on HTTP here - http://www.http.header.free.fr/http.html
So it is not quite possible to totally stop anyone that know how the http protocol works. But what you can do is to maybe listen for right clicks and stop normal end users from right clicking and saving a image etc. You can get a snippet here - http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex9/noright.htm
But if you are talking about protecting images/files that are selling please have a look at Protect html/php/image files from tracking as it then applies to your problem.
You can add to your body tag like so:
<body onselectstart="return false">
This is Internet. You can't completely protect the content of the page.
But you can difficult this task for the user.
You can too handle keyboard and mouse inputs, like Ctrl+C or right click of the mouse.
But remember that the user can always see the source code of the page, copy it and paste on a HTML editor.
You can make your site in Silverlight or Flash, but this will "disable" search engines indexing.
convert your page into a image
You can disable the selection, and with out selection you do not have copy/paste, however I suggest do that only on some parts of your page because is frustrate for the user.
This is the simple code that you can do that, eg, if you have a div with id="notme", run the disableSelOnThis("notme");
function disableSelOnThis(IdName) {
var oElem = document.getElementById(IdName);
if (oElem)
disableSelection(oElem); }
function disableSelection(element) {
element.onselectstart = function() {
return false;
};
element.unselectable = "on";
element.style.MozUserSelect = "none";
element.style.cursor = "default";
}
The code was from : http://ajaxcookbook.org/disable-text-selection/ , but its seams that this site is not longer live.
Of course without javascript enable this is not working and everything ChrisF says still stands.
Just copy and Paste the below javascript in your webpage:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function disableselect(e) {
return false
}
function reEnable() {
return true
}
document.onselectstart = new Function("return false")
if (window.sidebar) {
document.onmousedown = disableselect // for mozilla
document.onclick = reEnable
}
function clickIE() {
if (document.all) {
(message);
return false;
}
}
document.oncontextmenu = new Function("return false")
var element = document.getElementById('tbl');
element.onmousedown = function () { return false; } // mozilla
</script>
Note:If the above code not works for Firefox then add style="-moz-user-select:none" in the body tag which needs to be restricted alongwith the above code.
How do I POST to a web page using Firebug?
You can send POST request to any page by opening console (e.g. in FireFox ctrl + shift + k) and typing simple JS:
var formPost = document.createElement('form');
formPost.method = 'POST';
formPost.action = 'https://www.google.com'; //or any location you want
document.body.appendChild(formPost);
formPost.submit();
AFAIK Firebug can't do this. However, there is a very useful Firefox extension, in the spirit of Firebug, called Tamper Data. This should be able to do what you want.
It allows you to monitor each request made by the browser, and you can turn on an option that allows you to look at, and edit, every single request before it gets sent.
Firefox 27 (maybe earlier versions too, never checked) has built-in developer tools to modify and resend requests. If you don't have Firebug installed, the console is available by pressing the F12 key. If Firebug is installed, press Ctrl+Shift+K instead.
I know this is an old question, but I recently stumbled upon the same problem and wanted to share the method I am using.
Assuming the web site you want to POST to has a form with method="POST" (a very likely scenario), you can use Firebug's JavaScript command line to programmatically submit a POST request. Just click the "Show Command Line" icon in Firebug and enter something like this in the narrow text box at the very bottom of the window:
document.forms[0].submit()
Maybe this helps someone.
Another simple solution is to load any webpage that uses jQuery, and type up a $.post() in the console.
HTTP resource test is a firefox plugin that can do this.
Another powerful Firefox plugin to perform post request and some more features is the Hackbar.
Related:
To resend a POST already made, right click the POST request in the Net/XHR view and click "Resend".
Using Firebug 1.12.0:
Got here looking for a Firebug way of doing this. Then I realized that I could use Fiddler. This is the most powerful tool I know when it comes to debugging web requests.
Fiddler The free web debugging proxy for any browser, system or
platform
Click the Composer tab and write your request as desired - then click Execute.
NO NEED of plugins !!
Just drag any url in BOOKMARK BAR, then right click and EDIT, and insert javascript code:
javascript:var my_params=prompt("Enter your parameters","var1=aaaa&var2=bbbbb"); var Target_LINK=prompt("Enter destination", location.href); function post(path, params) { var form = document.createElement("form"); form.setAttribute("method", "post"); form.setAttribute("action", path); for(var key in params) { if(params.hasOwnProperty(key)) { var hiddenField = document.createElement("input"); hiddenField.setAttribute("name", key); hiddenField.setAttribute("value", params[key]); form.appendChild(hiddenField); } } document.body.appendChild(form); form.submit(); } parsed_params={}; my_params.substr(1).split("&").forEach(function(item) {var s = item.split("="), k=s[0], v=s[1]; parsed_params[k] = v;}); post(Target_LINK, parsed_params); void(0);
then enter the target site-link, and click that button in BOOKMARK BAR! That's all!
