PDF in Android Browser

[Dan Friedman]

Monte,

Thanks for the info.  I do own a full license for MergExt.  But, I resolved the problem by doing this:

if isAndroid() then
  if tURL ends with ".pdf" then
    put "http://docs.google.com/gview?embedded=true&url=" before tURL
  end if
end if
    
mobileControlSet "webPage","URL",tURL

-Dan
