Hello,

It has been several years since I have used Opus and I did a search through forum but didn't see it, so I have to ask this dumb question.

I want to display a PDF file in a browser object in a HTML publication. It keeps defaulting to http. I know this was possible previously, but in my advanced senility, I can't remember how to accomplish now.

Would anyone be so kind as to jog my memory on how to do this?

Thanks

If by locally, you mean relative to the HTML document - try this:

1. Leave the address blank and untick the load automatically option. This will prevent the http or file prefix.

2. Create a text variable and use the name (without quotes) of the file to load.

3. Add an on show trigger to the page and add a navigate to variable for the browser.
