activateActiveX

---------------

Purpose: Dynamically replace any elements that will be affected by the new security feature in IE6/IE7 that requires a user to click certain types of elements to activate them before use.



Usage: Include this file at the end of your html document using the following...

<script language="JScript" type="text/jscript" src="activateActiveX.js"></script>







Since this script is in response to a software patent lawsuit, I feel it necessary to state the following...

//Determine browser, we only need this for Internet Explorer

if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") {



//Array of elements to be replaced

var arrElements = new Array(3);

arrElements[0] = "object";

arrElements[1] = "embed";

arrElements[2] = "applet";





//Loop over element types

for (n = 0; n < arrElements.length; n++) {



//set object for brevity

replaceObj = document.getElementsByTagName(arrElements[n]);



//loop over element objects returned

for (i = 0; i < replaceObj.length; i++ ) {



//set parent object for brevity

parentObj = replaceObj[i].parentNode;



//grab the html inside of the element before removing it from the DOM

newHTML = parentObj.innerHTML;



//remove element from the DOM

parentObj.removeChild(replaceObj[i]);



//stick the element right back in, but as a new object

parentObj.innerHTML = newHTML;
