Kent, Unfortunately no, we can't not use Sarissa because it is used extensively for XML doc handling and XSL processing.
You can try to fix up what was done before, which is trying to trap the exception thrown when MapBuilder loads, look at the checkIESecurity() method in lib/MapBuilder.js. This is supposed to open a help window if the error happens. If you can get that to work again, you can send your changes back to the list. I didn't realize that tutorial was still there. I did get a browser warning when I tried accessing it, perhaps you already have that url in your trusted sites? There is nothing special about that tutorial for this problem. (we should deprecate or update the tutorial with the new MapPaneOL stuff) Mike Kent B Kvarfordt wrote: > > Mike, > > Is there a way to configure Sarissa to not use the ActiveX controls? > I am not very strong in the ActiveX arena, but I assume these > controls won't work in the non-IE browsers that MapBuilder supports? > I really need to get around this from a configuration or programmatic > approach.
