    Hi,

    I am working in javascript and PHP. I want to open word document using javascript.
    For IE i used Activex and its working fine.

    What i have to do for Firefox?

    What is the alternative for Activex to handle in Firefox?


    Thanks in advance

    Don't know the exact answer to the question, but there is a plugin for Firefox where it uses the rendering engine from IE (Triton?) to render webpages within Firefox. That also understands ActiveX. It might be possible to use the same method, maybe?
