UWP Webview Content Editable - webview

I have a webview in my UWP windows store app. It recognises html content and renders accordingly. Now I need this webview to be editable. Please help someone.

Have a local html file which has body as contenteditable div and using WebView.NavigateToLocalStreamUri method (Here's the Sample), navigate to this page.Then set the div's content with your string. Also refer WebView.InvokeScriptAsync and ScriptNotify to inject and retreive data from webview.

The WebView is for displaying HTML content only. You'll need to use a different control for editing HTML.
Out of the box there's nothing specific for this. The nearest is the RichTextBox but you'll need to convert what this creates from RTF to HTML. This answer to a similar question points to this guide on how to do it.

you can "inject" javascript to the webview when navigation complete.
the inject script you can do the logic you want in .and you can inject this in the NavigateComplete Event.

WebView1.CoreWebView2.NavigateToString( "<HTML><HEAD/><BODY contentEditable='true'>Hello 2</BODY></HTML>" );

Increase font of HTML in Webview

I'm designing Windows 8 Reader app, and i have to use a control to display the HTML content in "Webview". I got this right now. My problem is how to increase the font in the HTML content in webview. I don't how to start this.Can any one help me..
I mainly develop for android. But i do have a friend who had the same problem..
What you can do to solve this problem is calling javascript for the webview..
this way you can edit the style of the website from the javascript you call.
But that's the direction i would be looking for now..
Edit..
It should be something like this:
YourWebView.InvokeScript("your script", null);

Ctrl+F doesn't work in JavaFX WebView

In JavaFX WebView I can view view html pages. Although shortcut to find a word doesn't work there (Ctrl+F).
How can I enable Ctrl+F functionality?
WebView does not support this functionality.
I raised a feature request for it. The feature is not scheduled for implementation. You can vote for it if you like.
You can implement the find functionality yourself.
An example would be to create a new HBox in your FX scene that opens when it detects the CTRL+F event with a TextField for typing into. After this, you'll need to make it so that every time you type in the TextField it will fire off an event to a method where you implement some Javascript that searches through the DOM of your current page based on what you typed in to find. You can also make it so that your script highlights the word it found, amongst other find related tasks.

html5/css3, Asp.net MVC3 - View pdf in an html page on mobile safari

My upcoming mobile web project requires viewing dynamically chosen pdf files inside the webpage. I am using iFrame to display the pdf file and the file can be scrolled using two-finger scrolling. But the problems I am facing are:
The first page of the file is not displayed completely on the iPad and gets cut off along the width unlike when I view it on the desktop browsers where the first page of the pdf is always entirely displayed although zoomed out to fit in the iFrame area.
There is no visual indication for the users that the pdf document can be scrolled, i.e., there is no scroll bar on the pdf document.
The controls (page navigation, zoom etc.) for the pdf viewer (Adobe reader) don't appear on the document unlike when I see it on the desktop browsers.
What is the best way to achieve what I am trying to do? Do any of you experts know any solutions/workarounds to the problems I am facing? An entirely different approach using anything other than iFrame can also be considered.
The reason why the pdf should be inside the html page is that, the list of pdf files will be on a menu bar on the left side of the page and the user can click on any of them to view on the same page. Ideally, they will have the capability to toggle between full screen view and that view.
Any help is appreciated.
I created a tiny JavaScript module that helps you to show a PDF inline and be able to scroll it. But I also couldn't figure out a way to make it fit the total width of the parent container.

I came across this Recommended way to embed PDF in HTML? while researching on the web to find an answer.
The mentioned link discusses about some options that I can use and the google document viewer works for me though don't know if there is anything (like data limit) I need to be aware of before using it on the website. Also I have no idea if it is a good solution (though the full screen mode is not available, but zoom-in/zoom-out and next/prev page buttons are there are show up in the mobile safari on the iPad) to use for an web app that will be run on the iPad.
Anyway, I will keep researching for a better solution and if i don't find any, I'll stick to the google document viewer.
The issue appears to be a bug with Safari on the IPad.
I didn't find a solution for embedding the pdf in html but I did find this:
If you return FileStreamResult from your controller action instead of a view, the pdf will open in a new tab, it's not embedded html but at least your user is not having to download files and open them manually.
I had the same problem of the pdf not being displayed completely. The only thing I found to fix this was the change the size of the div containing the pdf.
For example if the element containing the pdf is a div then I change its width to any value and the rollback to the value it had before. Changing Width or height any one works.
Sometimes I had to wait a little using a setTimeout before calling my resizable method

CGPDFDocument and voiceover

I have a PDF rendering app that loads PDF content from a URL (CGPDFDocumentCreateWithURL). The PDF loads fine, and I can display on screen no problem. These PDF also contain text for searching. I'm trying to make this comtent visible to the VoiceOver API. I've never worked with this frameowrk before.
Anyone have any hints or links that can help me get started?
If you have access to the text from the particular PDF page, you can set the accessibilityValue of the view you are using to display the page to the text value. This will then read the contents out.
If for some reason your PDF view is not accessible to voiceover, you can use an overlay view, and update its accessibility value as you change pages.

Is it possible embed PDF to jQuery UI dialog?

Is it possible to embed a "static" file or dynamically generated PDF in jQuery UI dialog?
Not consistently as everybody has the default behavior set differently. The only reliable way would be to generate HTML or an image to put in the dialog, even with an iFrame.
Tried an IFrame? :)
