I'm trying to modify the Internet Explorer plugin (npTrident.dll) for the Netscape Browser, so it will only launch when there's an ActiveX control on a web page. I know it's not secure, but seeing that the Mozilla ActiveX control doesn't work with Firefox yet, so this is the next best thing.

I've gotten this far with modifying it (excerpt from code):

Code: Select all

      VALUE "Comments", "Trident Plugin for Netscape"
      VALUE "CompanyName", "Netscape Communications Corp."
      VALUE "FileDescription", "npTrident"
      VALUE "FileExtents", "ocx|ocx"
      VALUE "FileOpenName", "ActiveX Control|ActiveX Control"
      VALUE "FileVersion", "2004, 0, 0, 1"
      VALUE "InternalName", "npTrident"
      VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Copyright © 2004 Netscape Communications Corp. All Rights reserved."
      VALUE "LegalTrademarks", ""
      VALUE "MIMEType", "text/html|text/plain"
      VALUE "OriginalFilename", "npTrident.dll"
      VALUE "PrivateBuild", ""
      VALUE "ProductName", "Trident Plugin for Netscape"
      VALUE "ProductVersion", "2004, 0, 0, 1"
      VALUE "SpecialBuild", ""


The only place I'm stuck at is the [tt]VALUE "MIMEType"[/tt] for the plugin. Does anybody know the MIME type for an ActiveX control? Is there more than one? Do they even have MIME types?

P.S. Sorry if I've posted this in the wrong forum, but it is somewhat of an akward topic seeing that we're trying to use a Microsoft product in Netscape.
