[RESOLVED] ActiveX blocked in Internet Explorer

Hello

I didn’t know where to put this thread so hopefully one of you will be able to help.

My website works fine in Firefox and in Internet Explorer but every time I open it in IE, it blocks some of the content behind the scenes, saying it has blocked ActiveX controls. I do have some JavaScript in my code and it seems to be this that IE has a problem with. Why though? I’ve viewed hundreds of sites with JavaScript in them and it doesn’t do it for them.

How can I tell IE to just accept my script from the word go?

Many thanks, in advance.

Steph ?
