A set of technologies that allows software components to interact with one another in a networked environment, regardless of the language in which the components were created.

It is a plugin designed to allow ActiveX controls to run inside Netscape Communicator 4.x and Mozilla. The ActiveX control can support scripting through a hardcoded interface in LiveConnect on 4.x and XPConnect on Mozilla 6.0-7.0. The plugin built for Mozilla 1.4 and Netscape 7.1 supports near transparent scripting thanks to COM connect

When logging into Kohler PLUS for the first time you will be prompted to install the ActiveX Viewer. If you choose not to install, Kohler PLUS may not perform properly. We highly recommend the installation of ActiveX. Click Install Components. This should install in about 30 seconds depending on your internet connection.

To use our ActiveX upload tool, you need to have ActiveX controls enabled on your computer. To do this, click Tools > Internet Options from your browser's menu bar. Click on the Security tab at the top and then the custom Level... button on the bottom of the dialog box. A list of Security Settings will pop up. Make sure that all of the options for ActiveX are set to either enable or prompt.

Maybe some day, but the control won't help here. The control is a DLL wrapper around the Gecko rendering engine and is not part of mozilla.exe. At the time of writing, Mozilla has no automation interface so you cannot control it via IWebBrowser or any other ActiveX interface. I would like to see Mozilla gain such a capability but it would probably be as much work again to achieve as the control was to implement.

ActiveX is a set of technologies created by Microsoft for sharing information among different programs. The 'control' is simply the use of ActiveX. In the case of sirius.com, the ActiveX control is sharing song and artist data found in the Windows Media Player plug-in with your browser. It is similar to a Java applet, except that ActiveX controls have full access to the Windows operating system only-they do NOT work with Macintosh browsers and certain PC browsers.

This is where I can still get into legal trouble. Let me preface this again with "All that is said on this site is simply my opinion". So, in my opinion, ActiveX is a danger. It's dangerous because of the basic nature of ActiveX, not because of a simple bug here and there. ActiveX is the same thing as OLE. Microsoft has repeatedly stated that ActiveX is OLE renamed. ActiveX/OLE is simply a Microsoft Windows software component.

For quite a while my answer to this was no. After all, you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. After thinking about it some more, with quite a bit of work perhaps it could be fixed. If Microsoft ran ActiveX controls in what they term as a "Sandbox", one could prevent disk writes, and other dangerous actions from taking place. I find it very unlikely that Microsoft will do this.

The Mozilla control is a binary replacement for the IE control so the choice of object technology was predetermined.

Some people have had problems moving an ActiveX barcode control into a table. The control appears outside the table. The solution is as follows. Right-click on the control, choose Format...object. On the Position tab, uncheck the "Float over text" check box. You should be able to move the control in to a table cell. You can find ActiveX controls on our Plug-ins page.

No. Both ActiveX and exe's are now blocked by just about every virus checker, spyware checker and mail checker system. Our system uses basic HTML and nothing else, and is therefore IMMUNE? to blocking!

The ActiveX control message is based on your browser security settings. If you receive the ActiveX control message, you need to modify and select Madico SiteBuilder as a trusted site in your ActiveX control settings to be able to use the Site Editor tool. To configure your ActiveX control settings so that you will not receive this message in the future: The imported content has presumed a larger size footprint than our templates permit. Some of our templates have size restrictions.

QEngine supports the ActiveX controls record and playback in Analog Mode. You can choose the “analog mode” option present next to the “Start Record” button in the QEngine toolbar before recording the ActiveX controls.

The ActiveX library is called PCUTAX.DLL. PCUTILS.DLL is a standard dynamic link library and is used only if ActiveX is not required.

You can download the Macromedia Flash Player 6 for PocketPC 2002 here. Install the control and register it on your device. For those developers that invested in COM and ActiveX components for mobile devices in the past, Odyssey Software provides great interoperability tools for the .NET Compact Framework."

AddFlow for .NET is NOT compatible with the current ActiveX version. For instance, if you are porting an application from VB6, you will have to review almost all the code that uses AddFlow (however this is just a matter of a few hours). If you need a strict compatibility, you can use the current ActiveX version (5.4) as a COM component in a .NET application. However we encourage you to use the .NET version which is far more powerful and easier to use.

Yes AddFlow is digitally signed, using Microsoft Authenticode technology and Verisign as the certifying authority.

the evaluation version of each product has a nag screen. You may use it for up to 60 days for trials and design-time evaluation purposes only.

In addition to the chapter Evolving Applications with COM in the Cross-Platform Developer's Guide, we recommend the following books:

The CloseOn property of the Control object specify how the user closes the ActiveX control when clicking on it. You have the following options: left button down, left button up, left button dbl click, right button up, right button down, right button dbl click, middle button down, middle button up and middle button dbl click. By default, the user can close the ActiveX control by dbl click on it.
