Deploying ActiveX Control in HTML
I have added an html doc that uses a VB ActiveX control to our existing in house program. It works great on my computer but when I try to deploy it to our IIS it doesn't work( blank page). I am using Package and deployment wizard. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

My html file is as follows:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>QWeb.CAB</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<OBJECT ID="QWeb"
CLASSID="CLSID:16B88676-6B
CODEBASE="QWeb.CAB#version
</OBJECT>
</BODY>
</HTML>
I just noticed, however, that on my computer it doesn't matter if QWeb.CAB is present or not - it works based on the CLSID alone.

Yeah I know. But when other people don't have the activex component installed then Internet Explorer tries to download the component from the webserver using the CODEBASE tag and youre CAB file.

I did gave the solution
Did you add the codebase tag to youre object defenition in youre html file?
<OBJECT classid=CLSID:1C8E277D-983
codeBase=download/Properti
style="LEFT: 7px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 7px; VISIBILITY: hidden; Z-INDEX: 100">
<PARAM NAME="_ExtentX" VALUE="1191">
<PARAM NAME="_ExtentY" VALUE="1191">
</OBJECT>
in this example I have a directory on my webserver called download where the PropertiesLib.CAB file is
