如何在网络文件夹上调用PDF以在用php生成的iframe中显示它

Question

it's not that complicated as it may sound in title, but here is my code:

<?php
echo '<iframe src="\\servername\pdf\test.pdf"></iframe>';
?>

My error in this case is, that file cannot be found on this server. So I have local network nad I would like to call pdf file on other server. PHP keeps trying to tell me that file doesn't exists on this server. How to switch to another server?

Thank you guys, best!

The way you wrote your path , represents location of current or local storage device. To indicate some remote location you need to specify path along with protocol like 'http://' . For example 'http://location.com/name.pdf' ('http://' - if site is using http protocol)
