Show PDF in Fancybox or other lightboxes

Question

HI I was wondering if there is a way to display a pdf file in a light box, preferably Fancybox.

I have this page installed http://smrtbrand.com/guidance/

If you click on the new shopping list, I load it into an iframe, but it loads the PDF as the data that I consider.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

use fancybox iframe

<a href="sample.php">This goes to iframe</a> 

and in sample.php use google document viewer

 <iframe src="http://docs.google.com/gview? url=http://smrtbrand.com/pdfs/SMRT.newbaby.chcklst.pdf&embedded=true" style="width:600px; height:500px;" frameborder="0"></iframe>
