    Checking if user's browser is set to enable ActiveX objects through javascript

    Is there a way to use Javascript to see if a user has his or her browser set up to enable ActiveX objects?

    Specifically, I only need the code for IE 6.0+ for a PC. (since ActiveX isn't really supported by any other browser anyway . . .)

    Thanks!

    Why not just try creating the object and use error handling (try .. catch should work)

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.
