conditional rendering of image


User (Legacy)

Recommended Posts

Dear all,

Is it possible to render image even though user's browser is activeX

compatible, but user decided not to download the activeX control.

This is a real situation that the company I work for is facing right now.

The rules are that some organisation's users can only view image while

others have the option between activeX or image. This implies some

auto-detection mechanism whereby application can determine that user is not

interested in downloading the control.

Is it impossible to do?

It will be greatly appreciated if someone can guide on this.

Thanking in advance.

If you tell ChartFX to Auto detect it can only use information in the user

agent header sent by the browser, the browser does not send extra

information such as firewalls restrictions or if the user disabled ActiveX

controls.

You can certainly save a personalization string in your database ("Auto",

"Image", etc.) and pass this info to ChartFX.
