Problems openning PDF file using navigateToURL
Greetings my friends
In our Webapplication we have some buttons that open an PDF file.
We are using the navigateToURL method.
The problem is that we are using bookmarks within the pdf and to open an
link and point to an bookmark the URL used is something like
http://portal.beelogicsoftware.com/BeelogicIMS/manuals/pt_PT/BeelogicIMSChan
geLog.pdf#pagemode=bookmarks&nameddest=Alterações no Portal
As you see, it accepts non standard characters on the URL as spaces and ç
and õ.
The link works with this characters if you put it directly on the browser,
but when I open it using the method above mentioned it corrects the invalid
characters.... and the bookmark pointer stops working.
http://portal.beelogicsoftware.com/BeelogicIMS/manuals/pt_PT/BeelogicIMSChan
geLog.pdf#pagemode=bookmarks&nameddest=Altera%E7%F5es no Portal
So what I ask is, is there a way to open a link without these correction?
Thanks

RE: Problems openning PDF file using navigateToURL
Posted by Pedro Serralha <pe...@elegedata.com>.
I've done some tests, based on the findings that you guys did, and for
example disabling the pdf plugin of the chrome and activating the Fox It
Reader viewer and checked that it doesn't support the unencoded url... Based
on this and on your findings it's better to assume that using this method to
point something on an PDF isn't stable on most platforms, so we will abandon
this way and use just the pagenumber way, this one worked on every tests
I've made and it's impossible to have strange characters :)
Thank you for your efforts guys

I see PDFs in Chrome here on my mac. Have you disabled Chrome PDF Viewer in
chrome://plugins/ ?
The URL is working when the URL has the Space and NOT the %20 in the URL.
Actually, when I clear my Browser cache,
Chrome shows only the first page. But when I load it the second time, it
jumps to page 7.

I just tried that url here in Safari and the URL does get escaped by Safari,
turning it into:

geLog.pdf#pagemode=bookmarks
<http://portal.beelogicsoftware.com/BeelogicIMS/manuals/pt_PT/BeelogicIMSCha

&nameddest=Alterações%20no%20Portal
But, although Safari, IE and Firefox do display the PDF, neither go to page
7. Safari & IE do display the bookmarks, but FF does not.
If I try the same URL on Chrome (mac or win) it simply downloads the PDF,
chrome does not display the pdf.
So, if Marcus test does work, then navigateTuURL seems to do a better job
than the browser.

What are you actually passing into the URLRequest parameter?

But for what I understood, on both links you've sent. They tell how to
encode parameters on URL and the escape() is to convert a string to a

The thing is that the last part of the URL

specific to the PDF readers, and I don't think it can be considered an
normal http parameter. I don't know why the reader doesn't decode
correctly the encoded characters, but only if I could pass the pure
string without any encoding/ treatment, the thing would work.
Btw still using 4.6sdk on these project.

Is this a web app or AIR app? If web app, what happens if you try to open
the PDF from JavaScript?

I'm not at the PC right now, so I'll try both things later.
But I've remembered one thing the url field on urlrequest, mantains the
correct URL, so it doesn't encodes it.

Re: Problems openning PDF file using navigateToURL
Posted by Julio Carneiro <ju...@4ctv.com>.
Pedro,
Have you tried to monitor the network traffic to view the actual request being sent out by navigateToURL?
Use your browser developer tools/web inspector/firebug/fiddler or whatever it is called in your browser.
Try to monitor both, when you type in the url in your browser and the actual URL sent out by navigate.
Even better if you can use something like wireshark, which is browser independent.
Compare both to see if there is any difference, that might give you a clue as to what the problem is. And maybe how to fix it.

What are you actually passing into the URLRequest parameter?

RE: Problems openning PDF file using navigateToURL
Posted by Pedro Serralha <pe...@elegedata.com>.
Marcus thank you for replying.
But for what I understood, on both links you've sent. They tell how to
encode parameters on URL and the escape() is to convert a string to a
URL-encoded format, which is what I don't want.
As you can see
http://portal.beelogicsoftware.com/BeelogicIMS/manuals/pt_PT/BeelogicIMSChan
geLog.pdf#pagemode=bookmarks
<http://portal.beelogicsoftware.com/BeelogicIMS/manuals/pt_PT/BeelogicIMSCha
ngeLog.pdf#pagemode=bookmarks&nameddest=Alterações no Portal>
&nameddest=Alterações no Portal
The thing is that the last part of the URL
#pagemode=bookmarks&nameddest=Alterações no Portal is something specific to
the PDF readers, and I don't think it can be considered an normal http
parameter. I don't know why the reader doesn't decode correctly the encoded
characters, but only if I could pass the pure string without any encoding/
treatment, the thing would work.
Btw still using 4.6sdk on these project.

Greetings my friends
In our Webapplication we have some buttons that open an PDF file.
We are using the navigateToURL method.
The problem is that we are using bookmarks within the pdf and to open an
link and point to an bookmark the URL used is something like
http://portal.beelogicsoftware.com/BeelogicIMS/manuals/pt_PT/BeelogicIMSChan
geLog.pdf#pagemode=bookmarks&nameddest=Alterações no Portal
As you see, it accepts non standard characters on the URL as spaces and ç
and õ.
The link works with this characters if you put it directly on the browser,
but when I open it using the method above mentioned it corrects the invalid
characters.... and the bookmark pointer stops working.
http://portal.beelogicsoftware.com/BeelogicIMS/manuals/pt_PT/BeelogicIMSChan
geLog.pdf#pagemode=bookmarks&nameddest=Altera%E7%F5es no Portal
So what I ask is, is there a way to open a link without these correction?
Thanks
