For older versions of Internet Explorer, an ActiveX Control was utilized to capture keys at a low enough level to enable full translation to host keys. Function keys and special keys could be mapped using the control.
With modern versions of Internet Explorer, the need for the ActiveX control has been reduced significantly. Most keystroke combinations can be mapped using simple Javascript events. There are times when the default use of the ActiveX control will be desired, which is the function of this setting.
Example:
<add key="IEActiveX" value="{'on':[6],'off':[7,8,9,10]}"/>
In the example, the default for users of IE6 and below (such as IE 5.5) will be presented with the ActiveX Installation dialog on first use of the FVTerm application. All other versions, IE7 and above, will have the use of the ActiveX control defaulted off (no install will occur).
If a version is either above or below the defined range, it will use the closest defined version to determine the ActiveX default.
Users can manually select to have the ActiveX control loaded using the Preferences dialog when available.
