Jay Balunas commented on RF-8429:
---------------------------------
Unfortunately, this is Microsoft-related issue. Up to IE8 they implement XMLHttpRequest,
that is necessary for AJAX transport, as ActiveX control, so it generates warnings for any
AJAX-enabled RichFaces component - and anything else that uses the standard IE Ajax
transport. At most all known AJAX libraries use the same XMLHttpRequest object.
ActiveX controls are enabled by default, so it oblivious result of custom policy in the
customer's domain. They have to ask domain admin to setup appropriate security
restrictions.
There are many options for those changes. You can setup whitelists, allow administrator
approved controls, or place their internal site in a security zone where this will not be
a problem. And they can push all of this down as a domain policy template...any MCSE
should be able to lock this down.
IE7 pops up ActiveX control warning when launching pages including
Ajax built-in components such as rich:calendar

Key: RF-8429
URL:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-8429
Project: RichFaces
Issue Type: Feature Request
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Reporter: Gary Hu
IE 7 browser pops up waring "Your security settings do not allow websites to use
ActiveX controls installed on your computer. This page may not display correctly. Click
here for options." on the information bar when Richfaces components with built-in
Ajax capacities such as rich:calendar are presented on the page.
This is due to the fact that ActiveX control is used to handle the Ajax request in
Richfaces framework.
Can we find a fix to this issue? Can we handle the situation where ActiveX control is
disabled by the browser?
