Having researched the dreamweaver support documentation i discovered i could write an extension in c++. This could then be called as a javascript object. I obviously need this extra functionality. I am running an in house intranet website on an apache server. I was hoping this option would avoid the necessity to write an activex object. However i do not understand how this all works given that javascript is client side and obviously clients in the network would be running javascript interpreters within their own browsers which could not have this extended functionality! Can anyone explain how this works and if it is appropriate for this usage? If dreamweaver allows extensions to javascript how can this be accessed/ deployed to clients. Thanks in advance for any support...

The extensibility layer within Dreamweaver exposes a JavaScript API. An extension can use that API to make Dreamweaver perform supported actions. A C++ extension exposes an object that can be used similar to a JavaScript object within other Dreamweaver extensions. A Dreamweaver extension ( C++ or otherwise ) runs only within Dreamweaver itself, not within a web page.
It does not seem appropriate for what it sounds like you are trying to do.
