在弹出窗口中显示PDF会导致window.close为true

Question

I displayed a PDF in a popup window (IE11), tried to close the popup using the child window object but found that its already closed but the pdf if still open. This makes it evident that Acrobat is still working. Is is possible to close this from the browser using java-script? I tried embedding the pdf in iframe but its still not working..

Is there a work around for this using JavaScript?

Answer 1

var win; win = window.open('" + vServletURL +
            "','_blank',\"height=300,width=200,scrollbars=no,status=no, resizable=no\");"+
            "setTimeout(function(){if(!win.closed)win.close();},5000);

To popup the pdf.. my servlet builds the pdf;

OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();out.write(baos.toByteArray()); out.flush(); out.close();

were baos being ByteArrayOutputStream
