Wuts Wid Dis Active X Fingy on Ere Den !

Yes, that is what he is talking about.....

 

sorry i was making some tea. yes i was talking about the glow and shadow <tags> . my IE settings are different now to back then, i'll try and do it. maybe it needs active scripting too all i know is i used to have the alerts he's talking about, if i allowed it i saw the glow and shadow, if i disallowed it, i didnt.

 

i couldnt get it to prompt. maybe forget what i said and ask SITW to allow the prompts and see then

 

It would be helpful if you wouldn't mind to either post a Wilders link where this is happening....or add me to what puff-m-d asked in an earlier post.

said by puff-m-d:
"You can IM or e-mail (addy in profile) me with the user names you click on that triggers the warnings and I will take a look"

 

come on give them some links

 

Actually....the best I can find by attempting to interpret your first post is where you mention...."Certain ppls posts and/or their names"....and while that does narrow it done some....that's not the same as saying it's happening all over.

In any case....I'll offer you a link....and if you have not changed your IE settings....tell me if you get the ActiveX and plugin-ins warning Please.

Example of an IE plugin found in that above link:

Code:

<table style="border 0px;"><tr><td style="filter:Glow(color=yellow,
strength=4)"><table style="border 0px;"><tr><td style="filter:shadow
(color=white, direction=left,270)"><font color="red"><font size="5">
<b>this is activex <img src="images/smilies/cool.gif" border="0" alt=""
title="Cool" class="inlineimg" />  </font><font size="1">i
think</td></tr></table></td></tr></table>

Hi all,

All I would like to add that I DO get the same prompts that Mr.P's attached
images show.
That happened after I put Wilders in the Internet Zone - and - I get prompted for ActiveX & Plug-ins to run, randomly.

@Bubba...yes I Do get the warning (prompt) when clicking on the link.

Hope this helps...

In the Web content zone that Wilders has to adhere to....find the Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins selection in the ActiveX control and plug-ins section....and enable Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins Please....and tell me if you still receive the pop-up warning ?

 

To add to my above post....concerning the Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins. The important part of that is the ActiveX plug-in....and in the case of the above code I posted....note the table code. That is what is referred to as DOM(Document Object Model)....of which Table is the code used.

 

While the desired result of changing the setting was as expected....hopefully the important thing you found thru the explanations is that there is a difference between ActiveX controls(obj) and ActiveX plugins(dom).

 

Please forgive me, but now I have a question.... Is an IE plug-in considered to be activeX? Or is it that some IE plug-ins can utilize activeX but not all do? I am only used to hearing activeX refer to controls and DPF's (downloaded program files).....
