After reading some forums... (here some comments)
The PDF is loaded by the Acrobat Reader plugin. It kind of does it's own thing and has nothing to do with any of the HTML or even the browser for that matter (apart from being loaded by the browser).
People have the same problem with the Flash plugin, and there's no solution for that. So I would imagine there's no solution for this either.
Your best bet is to redesign your menus so they don't move into the space occupied by the pdf.
If it is a plugin, then you cannot reliably place other elements over the top of it. Browsers usually let go of most of their ability to 'layer' elements when plugins are involved.
The there is no direct support for overlaying 'z-indexing' a div either in the Api or Dom. The plug-in loads an executable file that, in very simple terms, punches a hole in the browser window. Using the 'iframe shim' technique is the standard workaround although transparency can be tricky.
My SOLUTION:
Two iframes, each one inside a div with different z-index, when you click the yellow div, the empty iframe is displayed (in front of the pdf iframe), so you can see the green div inside the pdf document.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function showHideElement(element){
var elem = document.getElementById(element);
if (elem.style.display=="none"){
elem.style.display="block"
}
else{
elem.style.display="none"
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div style="position:absolute;height:100px;width:100px;background-color:Yellow;" onclick="showHideElement('Iframe1');">click me</div>
<div style="position:absolute;z-index:100;background-color:Green;height:100px;width:100px;margin-left:200px;"></div>
<div style="position:absolute;z-index:20;margin-left:200px;">
<iframe visible="true" id="Iframe1" height="100" width="100" runat="server" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto" >
</iframe>
</div>
<div style="position:absolute;z-index:10;margin-left:100px;">
<iframe visible="true" id="ipdf" src="http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/fw4.pdf" height="1000" width="1000" runat="server" frameborder="0" scrolling="auto" >
</iframe>
</div>
</body>
</html>
