Jay Balunas commented on RF-8429:
---------------------------------

Unfortunately, this is Microsoft-related issue. Up to IE8 they implement 
XMLHttpRequest, that is necessary for AJAX transport, as ActiveX control, so it 
generates warnings for any AJAX-enabled RichFaces component - and anything else 
that uses the standard IE Ajax transport. At most all known AJAX libraries use 
the same XMLHttpRequest object. 

ActiveX controls are enabled by default, so it oblivious result of custom 
policy in the customer's domain. They have to ask domain admin to setup 
appropriate security restrictions.

There are many options for those changes.  You can setup whitelists, allow 
administrator approved controls, or place their internal site in a security 
zone where this will not be a problem.  And they can push all of this down as a 
domain policy template...any MCSE should be able to lock this down.

> IE 7 browser pops up waring "Your security settings do not allow websites to 
> use ActiveX controls installed on your computer. This page may not display 
> correctly. Click here for options." on the information bar when Richfaces 
> components with built-in Ajax capacities such as rich:calendar are presented 
> on the page.
> This is due to the fact that ActiveX control is used to handle the Ajax 
> request in Richfaces framework. 
> Can we find a fix to this issue? Can we handle the situation where ActiveX 
> control is disabled by the browser?
