Opening pdf

Does anyone know what I have to do to open up a pdf document in the browser and allow people to enter/edit fields on the document ?

its just a hyperlink much like any webpage.

Take on file:// in the front of it.
You cant write to pdf's unless you have a writer.

Thats exactly what I want to do. Write to pdfs.

Do I need to have pdf writer installed on the client machine ??
No, I don't think that's necessary. I believe you can create something called PDF Forms which allows inputs. But I don't think you'd be able to retrieve the values entered, the users will have to send it back themselves.
