Author Description
Focusing on design and development of Web-based and Web-enabled applications using Microsoft's cutting-edge technology, this book compares the ActiveX browsers, develops and implements Visual Basic Script into real-world applications, and describes the new ActiveX Document standard. The CD contains original ActiveX controls found nowhere else.
Menrva's Summary
THE THESIS
This book investigates the practical implementation of Microsoft ActiveX technology to facilitate the creation of web-based and web-enabled software applications. Author Tom Armstrong provides a technical framework for developers transitioning to the ActiveX environment. By utilizing real-world application scenarios, the text bridges the gap between theoretical standards and functional code deployment. The work emphasizes the integration of Visual Basic Script and the adoption of the ActiveX Document standard within browser environments.
THE SCOPE MAP
What You Will Find
- Comparative analysis of various ActiveX-compatible web browsers
- Implementation strategies for Visual Basic Script in web applications
- Technical documentation regarding the ActiveX Document standard
- Proprietary ActiveX controls provided on the accompanying CD
Scope Limits
- Does not cover non-Microsoft proprietary web technologies or cross-platform development outside the Windows ecosystem
- Excludes advanced server-side architecture beyond the scope of client-side ActiveX integration
THE AUTHORITY PERSPECTIVE
Experts recognize this text as a period-specific resource for developers working within the late 1990s Microsoft software stack. Readers frequently note the technical density of the code examples and the utility of the included proprietary controls for legacy system maintenance.
