Run ActiveX from the web

**Wytse Talsma** · Sep 26th, 2006, 02:25 PM

Hello,
I've made a small (test) activex file called Projekt1.ocx.
It's running fine from z:\test.html
But i see a very small rectangle when i'm running it from my server

( http://10.0.0.157/test.html )
What's the problem?

this is the html:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Downloader</title>
</head>
<BODY><Object classid="clsid:702D7A65-B297-4E0F-ACE7-4AB1D02F6D03" CODEBASE="http://10.0.0.157/Projekt1.ocx" ></Object></BODY>
</html>

this is the visual basic 6 ActiveX:

VB Code:

Private Sub VScroll1_Change()
Text1.Text = VScroll1.Value
End Sub

(it has a simple textfield and scrollbar)

*edit*:
I figured out with a msgbox, that the z:\ is VISIBLE and the http:// isnt, but BOTH are running the (same) code: msgbox "TEST"
Why isnt the http:// visible???

Your first bad move is that you didn't package your control properly in a CAB file.

I suspect the reason it isn't working though is that you have a licensing failure.

Read Using ActiveX Controls to Automate Your Web Pages. Look at the section on licensing and LPKTool.

You may also have problems due to the browser security level set for the zone your page is being loaded from.
