Will this work even if the modal includes form elements OTHER THAN a text? Will it work with name, email & address elements? And if Yes, then are the modal element field values able to be included within the base form's submission data?

The Popup Modal referred at https://www.jotform.com/help/417-How-to-Add-a-Pop-Up-Modal-on-your-Form is suppose to be used used if you want to show some ads, additional information or other messages that are not part of the main body of your form.

To create a form that should popup please follow the instructions provided at https://www.jotform.com/help/220-How-to-Create-a-Lightbox-Form

It is possible to accomplish what you need with some workaround, please try the following:

1) Upload the PDF file to your web host, or a third party cloud storage like Google Drive. Copy the exact location (URL) for this file.

2) Now, enter the URL in the SRC attribute of the following Iframe code:

<iframe src="Enter URL HERE" style="width:100%;height:600px;border:none;"></iframe>

3) Example:

<iframe src="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5GkNaXoB7uAYnhxM1E1NHJITU0/preview" style="width:100%;height:600px;border:none;"></iframe>

4) Copy the whole Iframe code now, and paste it in the source code of the popup modal, example:

Hi! I believe I followed all of the instructions above on how to display a PDF popup, but it didn't work,. I used Google Drive and Dropbox,. I know this post is quite recent so this is less likely to be a deprecated feature. Please advise, thank you!
