Reset to default 5I've figured out what my problem was. I replaced the pdf.js with pdf.min.js and now everything works fine in both Explorer 10 and Chrome. Don't know exactly why, but it works.
the reason it doesnt work is because pdf.js is not supported by ie9 and below https://github./mozilla/pdf.js/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#what-browsers-are-supported
if you want to force users to embed pdf in ie7,8,9 you can do this
<embed src="../pdfFileName.pdf" class = "pdf-content">
.pdf-content {your style and size}
this works if they have somekind of pdf reader
if you want fallback you can use <object> tag
there is a discussion EMBED vs. OBJECT about embeding vs object
