Summary | 0009793: ActiveXObject emulation hack should be removed | ||||
Description | xmlhttprequest.js contains a nasty hack to emulate IE activex support: // ActiveXObject emulation That's very bad since plugins can no longer rely on 'window.ActiveXObject' to check for activex support in the current browser. This method is widely used when we try to embed a browser plugin (Flash Player for instance) to check of the browser should load the activex or the mozilla plugin. | ||||

Do you have a proposed patch? |
|
I can't believe the term "ActiveX" is contained within the MantisBT source. It's a disgrace and needs to be removed at once. Queued for 1.3.x :) |
|
Removed today as part of the fix for 0012631. |
|
Marking as 'acknowledged' not resolved/closed to track that change gets ported to master-2.0.x branch |
