Navigate PDF File using Jquery

I have a question about PDF files with Jquery.
Though most browsers has an embedded PDF Viewer, but what i need is something totally different.
while i was browsing IKEA Catalouge http://onlinecatalogue.ikea.com/TR/tr/IKEA_Catalogue/
i found it simple and professional, viewing the catalouge this way is so easy and nice, but on the other hand it's using Flash which I don't recommend !
So, is there any possible way to read the content of a PDF File using Jquery and then i will write the arrow keys function to go to the next page or go back and so on ?
Waiting your help and Ideas.

Multiple file upload using javascript without modifying current code

I have a script already for uploading pictures, but I want the ability to select more pictures at once on upload,by holding down ctrl,I know I can use uploadify but I don't want to start over, mabe you guys know a script or something for jquery, that will work without to remove the current code, or you guys could give me a snippet.

The ability to slect multiple files in entirely the browsers features. Which cannot be changed by using a Javascript or css or html. Using uploadify or similar as you mentioned in your question is the right way to go.
You know uploadify also uses the swfobject.js, to overcome this limitation by using an actionscript instead.

You could write your own upload system in javascript with ajax. See http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/file/dndfiles/
Basic workflow
get local file contents
push to server via ajax
With this you could do a multi-file select and/or drag and drop upload system. Best and maybe only solution if you want to stay in javascript.

Accessing Local Files with jQuery

I believe that this question has been asked in a few different forms, but I've read quite a few different responses.
At first, I had a web-application written with mostly jQuery that would make use of servlets to retrieve information from various locations JavaScript could not access (ie. Feeds, images from a server, etc.). Now, however, I've been told to do away with the servlets and application configuration classes so that this project of mine contains only HTML, CSS, and JavaScript/jQuery. Rather than pulling the images off of the server, I need to retrieve them from a local file on the computer. I know that allowing this might seem like terrible design, but it's what I've been asked to do. At any rate, what I really need to do is count the number of image files in a directory and then perhaps compile an array of the filenames themselves. I could do this fine in Java when using the servlets, but without them, I'm not sure how or even if this can be done.
I'm basically trying to use the jQuery Cycle plug-in to cycle through these images like a slideshow. I inject (or $("#div").append()) these images into the div by using a loop based on the number of images present.
So, is there a way I can do this with using JavaScript, HTML, jQuery plug-in, etc? I'd like to avoid using PHP and Java at this point...

You can't just read a directory with JavaScript; however, there appears to be a way to "exploit" how browsers function using http://www.irt.org/articles/js014/. It may not be pretty, but the demo works in the latest Chrome and IE7-9 for me. I'm sure some of the techniques could be updated to use cleaner code if you'd like to improve upon it.
EDIT:
Another technique you could use can be found in Javascript read files in folder
It definitely looks to be a cleaner solution. What I'd recommend is extracting the body contents to inject into a hidden div or using the path for an iframe that you can read from.

How to make own file upload using HTML and javascript

I need to make new own file upload field using HTML and Javascript since Built-In file upload not showing full path of the file
I need to make it similar to file upload by using button and textbox
please help to solve this problem

You can't.
There are security considerations browsers must adhere to and there is now way around that.
FYI this is also why Firefox doesn't allow drag and drop into a file field.

Just fyi, I think the path display depends on your browser.
If you're willing to/can do so, java (not javascript) might be able to help you with your original problem. Java brings it's own problems, though.

The file upload is a specific input type, which you can't easily replace, but in some browsers you may be able to style it.
You should be able to access the filename from javascript, and display this in a different part of the page (possibly hiding the file input at the same time) so the user can see what will be selected.
Another option is to use Flash for a fancier front-end (see http://www.flickr.com/photos/upload/ (assuming you have a flickr account) as an example), but I've never used one of these as a developer

How do I hide my javascript/jquery scripts from html page (from view source on right click)? please give suggestion to achive this .
Thanks.

You can't hide the code, JavaScript is interpreted on the browser. The browser must parse and execute the code.
You may want to obfuscate/minify your code.
Recommended resources:
CompressorRater
YUI Compressor
JSMin
Keep in mind, the goal of JavaScript minification reduce the code download size by removing comments and unnecessary whitespaces from your code, obfuscation also makes minification, but identifier names are changed, making your code much more harder to understand, but at the end obfuscation gives you only a false illusion of privacy.

Your best bet is to either immediately delete the script tags after the dom tree is loaded, or dynamically create the script tag in your javascript.
Either way, if someone wants to use the Web developer tool or Firebug they will still see the javascript. If it is in the browser it will be seen.
One advantage of dynamically creating the script tag you will not load the javascript if javascript is turned off.
If I turned off the javascript I could still see all in the html, as you won't have been able to delete the script tags.
Update: If you put in <script src='...' /> then you won't see the javascript but you do see the javascript file url, so it is just a matter of pasting that into the address bar and you d/l the javascript. If you dynamically delete the script tags it will still be in the View Source source, but not in firebug's html source, and if you dynamically create the tag then firebug can see it but not in View Source.
Unfortunately, as I mentioned Firebug can always see the javascript, so it isn't hidden from there.
The only one I haven't tried, so I don't know what would happen is if you d/l the javascript as an ajax call and then 'exec' is used on that, to run it. I don't know if that would show up anywhere.

It's virtually impossible. If someone want's your source, and you include it in a page, they will get it.
You can try trapping right click and all sorts of other hokey ways, but in the end if you are running it, anyone with Firefox and a 100k download (firebug) can look at it.

You can't, sorry. No matter what you do, even if you could keep people from being able to view source, users can alway use curl or any similar tool to access the JavaScript manually.
Try a JavaScript minifier or obfuscator if you want to make it harder for people to read your code. A minifier is a good idea anyhow, since it will make your download smaller and your page load faster. An obfuscator might provide a little bit more obfuscation, but probably isn't worth it in the end.

Firebug can show obfuscation, and curl can get removed dom elements, while checking referrers can be faked.
The morale? Why try to even hide javascript? Include a short copyright notice and author information. If you want to hide it so an, say, authentication system cannot be hacked, consider strengthening the server-side so there are no open holes in server that are closed merely though javascript. Headers, and requests can easily be faked through curl or other tools.
If you really want to hide the javascript... don't use javascript. Use a complied langage of sorts (java applets, flash, activex) etc. (I wouldn't do this though, because it is not a very good option compared to native javascript).

Not possible.
If you just want to hide you business logic from user and not the manipulation of html controls of client side than you can use server side programming with ajax.
