I've seen pages that when ran, they have Adobe Acrobat reader
right in the web page. Does anyone know how this is done?

Thanks ahead of time

a lot of browsers have a plugin that enables browsers
to read a PDF (Acrobat) document. There's scripts available out
there that can check if a browser has the right plugin, both for
VBScript and Javascript. Once a user with this plugin clicks a link
to a PDF, the Acrobat document will show in the browser window.
Hope this helps...

Basically you point to it with your link like you would point to another HTML file

ex.:
<a href="webpage.htm">
or
<a href="PDFdoc.PDF">
(that would open the PDF document in the current frame/ page)

and if you work with frames, you can point to a previously declared frame: <a href="PDFdoc.PDF" target="frame_you_want">

The only really important thing is that the user need to have Acrobat reader installed..
