Question

Does Robohelp use ActiveX controls in Responsive HTML?

RoboHelp 2015, output  Responsive HTML5.

When I open the help in Internet Explorer, IE says

If I allow blocked content, everything is fine. If I don't, the help won't open.

But I didn't include any ActiveX controls. Is IE referring to all the javascript files? Or is RoboHelp including some ActiveX controls?

Thank you.

Notice the message says: scripts or ActiveX controls. It's because of the javascript files. Additionally, the message only appears if you double-click and open a Responsive HTML5 output from your local hard drive. Once you place the content where it is supposed to live, out on a web server, and users access it from there, there should be no message and things should just work.

Thanks Rick. I suspected it was the javascript. I would feel more comfortable if someone would say "No, RoboHelp doesn't add any ActiveX controls to responsive HTML 5  Helps"

Is there some way to test for ActiveX controls in the completed help? Does the line in the ehlpdhtm.js file that says

var HH_ActiveX = false;

demonstrate there is no ActiveX in the project?

Thanks again.
