I have an aspx page: Main.aspx which has several components that cause
a postback. In the page Main.aspx I also have an iframe which contains
a multi-page pdf file.

The problem I am facing is that whenever the user does an action which
causes a postback on the main page Main.aspx, the page posts back and
the pdf file in the iframe is reloaded. This is a problem becuase if
the user has rotated or magnified the page then that is lost.

Is there anyway that the content in the iframe is not refreshed? Any
other ideas to maintain the state of the pdf file.?

Thanks a lot!

Fred
 
Did you try using "Page.IsPostBack" Property?

I'd suggest using regular frames instead of an IFrame.
That way each frame posts back independently - one is not embedded within
the other so you won't have this problem.
 
I’m writing an article on this issue. If you want sample e-mail

The way most people would probably do it is to have a frameset with 3 frames
containing: Pagemain, Page1, Page2

Right, but the problem is that my pagemain.aspx has a datalist which
contains hyperlinks. This datalist is my navigation bar. So if someone
clicks on a hyperlink http://server/site/nextpage.aspx, only
pagemain.aspx would navigate to the nextpage.aspx. What I want to do
is to replace the entire frameset with nextpage.aspx. Is there anyway
to do that? Any ideas?

Thanks a lot!

Thanks for help. I have another question if you could help with that:

In my application I have a page: Pagefirst.aspx

In the second page: Pagesecond.aspx I have a frameset containing three
frames: top with src=top.aspx, bottomleft with src=bottomleft.aspx and
bottomright with src=bottomright.aspx.

From the Pagefirst.aspx the user clicks on a hyper
link-http://server/application/Pagesecond.aspx?OrderId=123

I want to pass the parameters of the query string to each of the pages
transparently at the time when user clicks on the hyperlink. So that
each of the pages are loaded with:
top.aspx?OrderId=123
bottomleft.aspx?OrderId=123
and
bottomright.aspx?OrderId=123

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks,

Fred
