So? What's the difference? It's still a component that requires installing previous to running the page.


>CreateObject is a bad choice for a script, but you can use the < OBJECT > tag and have it pull the object and associated CAB if necessary down for you dynamically inclduing version checks.

Yup. That's what I recommended in my first reply to this thread. But that is a little tougher to get worked out than a simple CREATEOBJECT().
