ActiveX - C#.NET

[timmoser]

I don't know much about ActiveX components, so I apologize if I'm way off here. ActiveX components allowed you to do things with a browser on a client machine that would normally not be permitted, like access the drives or printer.

My question is what does .NET offer to replace ActiveX components? If the answer is basic assemblies (dll's) wouldn't everyone that used (downloaded with the browser) the assemblies be required to have .Net framework installed?

Thanks for your thoughts.

It's not smart to write ActiveX control for browser in different language than C++. You can do that in different language but there is many negative things to solve.
