Reloading Content of Object With New PDF file

Question

I need to refresh the content of the object element after updating its file path like below.

<input type="file" onchange="$('#oPdf').attr('data',this.value')" />
<object id="oPdf" data='[path]' type="application/pdf" width="500px" height="100%"></object>

The value is set, but it doesn't seem to be updated using javascript.

I've managed to do it inside iframe, but I don't won't to use an iframe.
