The following html page works in Internet Explorer,
but not fully in Firefox.
To be able to use ActiveX in Firefox at all
one has to install the ActiveX plugin for Mozilla from
http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/mozilla.htm
The version for Firefox 1.04 also works with Firefox 1.06
Additionally, one has to add the 2 entries
pref("capability.policy.default.ClassID.CID0002E559-0000-0000-C000-000000000046",
"AllAccess");
pref("capability.policy.default.ClassID.CID0002E55D-0000-0000-C000-000000000046",
"AllAccess");
to the file
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\activex.js
In IE, everything works fine.
In Firefox, the Excel sheet will work,
but the chart will not display any data.
Any ideas what needs to be changes in my file?
