I'm currently evaluating Javasript toolkits to migrate a fat client application to a webapp. So far dojo seems the best choice, really impressive work!

However we have one particular issue that needs to be sorted out fist: Unfortunately our app relies on various DirectShow ActiveX to display video streams (like Axis Media Control). This restricts us to IE, we have to live with that.

There's a problem with the overlay of DHTML elements over the ActiveX: Dojo DateTextBox flyouts, Dialogs and Popup-Menus are always displayed hidden the ActiveX.

Hi,

I am new to the forums so please let me know if I should post this question elsewhere. Also, although I did search the documentation and the support site I did not come across this issue... if this has been addressed already please let me know and I will look there.

Problem
-------
Some browsers can be set to disable (and the user may not be able to change the setting due to corporate polices etc) the XHR object (and / or ActiveX controls)in these cases is there a workaround employed?
1. With IE 7 only the XHR object can be disabled
