    http://www.planetsourcecode.com sounds like it may be a script syntax error, though I would think that would be what it'd say instead of active X crap...the site above has some good code and tutorials, you might find an answer there.

    I'm only currently aware of a solution for IE browser users. Check out: http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/IEActiveXActivation.asp Also: Rather than generating a unique JavaScript file for every control, simply create a JavaScript file with a single function: window.WriteObjectElement = function(elementData) { if ("string" != typeof(elementData) || 0 == elementData.length) return; document.write(elementData); }; Register this script file, and replace the line: with: where Generated control string is the output of the control. This avoids the requirement to give ASP.NET write access to the root folder of the application, and degrades gracefully when script is disabled.

    The problem lies within your browser settings, not your HTML code. I have the same problem. I have to click on a box on just about every web page I load into my browser. I haven't yet figured out which of the settings (from within "Tools/Internet Options/Privacy") to change, but I think when you discover which setting to change, it will decrease your privacy, or your security, or something like that.

    I don't know about a way to sign it with MS, but if you want your site to look good across browsers (remember, Firefox and Opera now have a sizable chunk of the browser market) don't use Active X. These browsers do not support it in any fashion. Also, some users of IE (the ones that know Active X can destroy thier OS) have Active X turned off. If you are using it for Ajax related applications, offer alternatives (most APIs for Ajax can handle no Active X). Always, if you are concerned about your users ability to use the site, make sure your site degrades gracefully (that it works without things like CSS and JavaScript, and on older browsers).
