How to call the javascript function of the browser on which the Adobe Document/Form is rendered. For Example, on click of Close on the Adobe Form, I want to close the browser.

Thanks

Hi Naren.

There is a messageHandler property, which from the documentation "This object describes an API exposed to the object model of a container application that allows sending and receiving messages from an embedded PDF document. For example, when a PDF document is embedded in an HTML document using the <OBJECT> tag, the PDF object is scripted in the browser scripting context."

I've sent messages from an html page to a PDF but it does say you can receive messages, however there was not much documentation on this and I never used it in the live project so can't really help.

But might be a place to start looking?
