Web OCX's

[Ash Phillips]

Hi Everyone, I need to create a web control in VB.NET - what project do I
need to select from the new project menu?

Can't seem to do it like in VB6 :S

Also, when the control is embedded into the <object> HTML commands, how do I
get the OCX to read the <param name=""> tags in the html??

I have always been puzzled by how to do that.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

If I understand your question I believe you are looking to create a Web Form User Control:

Hi, it's not a web form user control... An active x control

Anyone got any more ideas??? lol

Thanks again

ActiveX no longer exists in .NET. If you want to create a control that will
function on an ASPX page then you want to create a web user control.

Not sure what you are looking for in the tag reading, but I would imagine
you can have the control parse the page, or use JavaScript to search through
the page to find the parameters you seek.
