Hello Faisal,

We are sorry to hear that you have this issue. I had a chat with you some time before. As I remember, you want to change document in the GroupDocs.Viewer using JavaScript, from client-side. Our developers will add this feature to the GroupDocs.Viewer widget in the near future, but now, at this moment, you need to perform document replacing by yourself and I’ll describe it now.

In general, for changing the document you need to completely remove the DIV where GroupDocs.Viewer control is present with all its content, and then recreate it and call the “groupdocsViewer” method one more time. Source code is below.





Change document





As you can see, there are two DIVs, one inside another, and a button (which in fact is a DIV too). When page is loading at first time ("$(document).ready"), ‘document1.pdf’ will be displayed. When user clicks the
Change document
 button, DIV “test” will be removed and recreated, and “SetGroupDocsViewer” method will be invoked again, and ‘document2.doc’ will be displayed at this time.

If you will have more questions please feel free to contact us.
