title: displaying a file from network path rather than application path
body: <p>I am trying to display a pdf file using this code:</p>
  <pre><code> &lt;object class=&quot;ss-pdfjs-viewer&quot; id=&quot;pdfDocument&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot; data= &quot;Documents/test1.pdf&quot; type=&quot;application/pdf&quot; allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen  &gt;
                      &lt;iframe class=&quot;ss-pdfjs-viewer&quot; id=&quot;test&quot;    src=&quot;https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=https://localhost:44307/WebForm1&amp;embedded=true&amp;allowDownload=true&amp;allowPrint=true&quot; allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
                &lt;/object&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>The above code works fine. The issue is this pdf file called test1.pdf is stored in my application path. Is it possible to show a pdf file from a network path instead of the application path for e.g. if I have test1.pdf file stored at this location:</p>
  <pre><code>\\web-d\test\path\test1.pdf. 
  </code></pre>
  <p>what should I do if I need to display this pdf file from my network path rather than application path. I tried doing this and it didnt work, it didnt display anything on the web page:</p>
  <pre><code> &lt;object class=&quot;ss-pdfjs-viewer&quot; id=&quot;pdfDocument&quot; runat=&quot;server&quot; data= &quot;\\web-d\test\path\test1.pdf&quot; type=&quot;application/pdf&quot; allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen  &gt;
                      &lt;iframe class=&quot;ss-pdfjs-viewer&quot; id=&quot;test&quot;    src=&quot;https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=https://localhost:44307/WebForm1&amp;embedded=true&amp;allowDownload=true&amp;allowPrint=true&quot; allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;
                &lt;/object&gt;
  </code></pre>
  <p>any help will be greatly appreciated.</p>
