Launch PDF from HTML

[dustman]

I'd like a piece of JavaScript to place in an HTML page so that when a
user clicks on a button or image I can launch an Adobe Acrobat .pdf
file in a full-screen Adobe Acrobat Reader.

If there's another way outside of Java, please let me know.

Many Thanks, I'm trying to score some brownie points with this one.

Look at Jimcos Spawn, it will create the popup window for you.

BTW. Java has nothing to do with JavaScript.

you don't need javascript - you just need to create a normal
hyperlink -either text or image to the pdf file.
it launches the Adobe Reader anyway, which is the default action for PDF
files.
