Hello guys,

I’m trying to display this code bellow with smartgwt and no luck so far.

<object width=“400px” height=“300px” type=“application/pdf” data=“http://127.0.0.1:8888/foobar/web/downloadReport” />

I tried something like this:

Element elem = DOM.createElement(“object”);
ObjectElement objectElement = ObjectElement.as(elem);
objectElement.setWidth(“400”);
objectElement.setHeight(“300”);
objectElement.setData(“http://127.0.0.1:8888/foobar/web/downloadReport”);
objectElement.setType(“‘application/pdf’”);
Canvas reportCanvas = new Canvas(elem);
reportCanvas.draw();

any help?

Almost work with this code:

Canvas reportCanvas = new Canvas();
reportCanvas.getElement().appendChild(objectElement);

mainContent.addMember(reportCanvas);

the only problem now is that my canvas are drawing in wrong position. Like x=0 and y=0.

any tips?

Canvas have the same method so you can do with a simple canvas too.

The only weird thing happening now is that my url got called twice.

anyone? please…
