Code:
else if (window.ActiveXObject)
{
for (x=2; x<10; x++)
{
// To Detect older Acrobat Versions 6 -
try
{
oAcro=eval("new ActiveXObject('PDF.PdfCtrl."+x+"');");
if (oAcro)
{
acrobat.installed=true;
acrobat.version=x+'.0';
}
}
catch(e) {}
}
// To Detect older Acrobat Versions 6 -
try
{
oAcro4=new ActiveXObject('PDF.PdfCtrl.1');
if (oAcro4)
{
acrobat.installed=true;
acrobat.version='4.0';
}
}
catch(e) {}
// To Detect Acrobat Version 7 +
try
{
bAcrobatVer7 = new ActiveXObject("AcroPDF.PDF.1");
if (bAcrobatVer7)
{
acrobat.installed=true;
acrobat.version="7.0";
}
}
catch(e) {}
}
I have this code to detect if Acrobat is installed - from version 7 the Object has changed to AcroPDF.PDF.1, does anyone know if that will change with V8? V7.5? Also, do the code above cover V3-V7?
TIA.
