[vb6/html] Embed activeX in webpages


Question

I am making an activeX control that will run the applications (login, customized menus, stuff) on my website, and have a few control.ocx files. I know that on webpages they say "The site may need the following activex control ..." and want to embed the control in my site. How can I have it so that when you go to the webpage, itll ask to install the ocx file which is on the website? (HTML code?) And how can i embed the userforms on the html page once the app installed?

I know you're looking at ActiveX controls, but I feel I should point out that these are only really supported in IE, and most users would be wary about installing them just to view the menu or whatever on your site. If you come from a vb background, I would suggest you look into classic asp, or asp.net using vb.net for the backend. It will give you much for flexability, and make your users more comfortable, as well as catering for a wider range of browsers.

If you still feel ActiveX is the way you want to go, have a quick google for "ActiveX control embed html" and you should find what you're looking for pretty quickly.
