I have a web page i'm working on that contains a windows media player control and a marquee control. If i view it with IE5 everything works fine. if i view the same page with netscape 6 the movie doesn't play and the marquee text is printed on the the page like normal text rather than scrolling. The main text of the page also prints underneath the movie control. I know there are some differences between a page displayed in netscape and IE, but how do you get active-x controls like the media player to work with netscape? Isn't netscape an active-x container just like IE.
TIA

netscape doesn't support activex, and visual interdev makes no attempt to generate pages that will work in netscape.
