Currently this constant is present in `viewer.js`, but it is not used there at all. Instead, it is used in `view_history.js` where we have a global for it. We might as well move the constant to `view_history.js` as that is the only place where it is used, thereby removing a global and an unused constant from `viewer.js`.
If your Internet Explorer 11 default compatibility settings are set to "I.E 7 Compatibility", the PDF plugin will not load. This fix is the same one used by AngularJS to force the browser to use HTML5 mode.
*This regressed in PR 5356.*
Rather than just backing out the offending code, this patch restores scrolling in PresentationMode by making the `overflow: hidden;` check optional and letting the callers that need it (e.g. `PDFFindController`) opt-in to use it.
When the user edits the URL and changes the reference fragment (hash),
PDF.js intercepts this action, and saves the then-current history state
in the previous history entry. This is implemented by navigating back,
editing the history and navigating forward again.
The current logic has a flaw: It assumes that calling history.back() and
history.forward() immediately updates the history state. This is however
not guaranteed by the web standards, which states that calling e.g.
history.back "must traverse the history by a delta -1", which means that
the browser must QUEUE a task to traverse the session history, per spec:
http://w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html5-20110113/history.html#dom-history-backhttps://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/browsers.html#dom-history-back
Firefox and Internet Explorer deviate from the standards by immediately
changing the history state instead of queuing the navigation.
WebKit derived browsers (Chrome, Opera, Safari) and Opera presto do not.
The user-visible consequence of strictly adhering to the standards in
PDF.js can be shown as follows:
1. Edit the URL.
2. Append #page=2 for example.
3. Press Enter.
-> Presto and WebKit: PDF.js reverts to the previous URL.
-> Gecko and Trident: PDF.js keeps the new URL, as expected.
To fix the issue, modification of the previous history item happens in
a few asynchronous steps, guided by the popstate event to detect when
the history navigation request has been committed.

Some more implementation notes:
I have removed the preventDefault and stopPropagation calls, because
popstate is not cancelable, and window is already the last target of the
event propagation.
The previous allowHashChange logic was hard to follow, because it did
not explain that hashchange will be called twice; once during the
popstate handler for history.back() (which will reset allowHashChange),
and again for history.forward() (where allowHashChange will be false).
The purpose of allowHashChange is now more explicit, by incorporating
the logic in the replacePreviousHistoryState helper function.
*This regressed in PR 4920.*
The main motivation for PR 4920 was to quickly get rid of old canvases when pages are evicted from the `PDFPageViewBuffer` cache. However it inadvertently broke the use-case where the `canvas` is used as a preview, on scale or rotation changes, until the re-rendering is finished.
Fixes 6467.
In PR 5552, specifically commit 9f384bbb41, the meaning of `this.annotationLayer` changed in `PDFPageView`. Previously it referred directly to a DOM element, but now it's instead an instance of `AnnotationsLayerBuilder`.
This patch tweaks things so that we won't try to hide a non-existent `annotationLayer` div in `PDFPageView_reset`, and also so that we don't attempt to insert empty (`null`) DOM elements in `PDFPageView_draw`.
*Follow-up to PR 6299.*
This patch reduces unnecessary code duplication for the `canvas` to `image` conversion. It also does a bit of re-ordering (and adds new lines) in `_getPageDrawContext`, since that function currently is a bit hard to read.
Since some browsers render `null` characters, and others don't, this patch adds a way to remove them to prevent display issues in the viewer UI.
Given that documents may contain very long outlines, I've added a utility function to avoid creating a lot of unnecessary `RegExp` objects.
To avoid any future issues, this utility function is used for both the outline and the attachments.
Fixes 6416.
Prior to PR 6242, the width of all outline items was set such that their right (or left, in RTL locales) edges lined up vertically. In my opinion that looked more consistent, therefore this patch adjusts the CSS to make sure that this will be the case again.
The patch also makes the `border-radius` values of outline items a bit more consistent.
It appears to me that the `expanded/collapsed` part of the names got switched around, since I'd expect the following convention:
- `v` == expanded
- `>` == collapsed
- This commit adds a '>' before every outline item that has subitems.
- Click on the '>' to collapse all subitems under that item (which turns
the '>' in a 'v').
- Shift + click expands/collapses all descendant items under that tree.
- Double-clicking on the "Show Document Outline" button in the toolbar
expands/collapses all outline items.

1. Go to the src/chrome/app/resources directory of Chromium's source.
2. Find the translation ID of the "Allow access to file URLs" string:
grep 'Allow access to file URLs' generated_resources_en-GB.xtb
3. With the ID that you've found, locate the other translations.
grep 3341703758641437857 generated_resources_*.xtb
4. If the result looks OK, serialize the result as JSON and save it.

Currently in `switchSidebarView` there is code that attempts to handle the `outline` or `attachments` being disabled. However, given the placement of it, that code does not actually accomplish anything. Even more strange is the fact that the way that the buttons are disabled, that code won't ever be hit.
(Looking back with `git blame`, it seems that it has never worked as you'd expect.)
Hence this patch, which correctly disables switching to the `outline` or `attachments` views when they are disabled.
Once PR 6314 restores the 'pagemode' hash parameter, this patch thus makes it impossible to switch to a disabled sidebar view by modifying the 'pagemode' hash of an already loaded document.
This regressed in 0ef6212b64.
Since the 'pagemode' hash parameter requires certain viewer functionality (e.g. thumbnails and an outline) in order to work, it seemed reasonable to move the functionality from `pdf_link_service.js` into `viewer.js`.
Similar to `namedaction`, this patch makes use of an event to forward the 'pagemode' parameter.
