Firefox: Communicator presence issue

Question

Hi

We are using NameCtrl in our application and works fine in IE. But the same is not working in Firefox. The firefox website says that they doesnt support ActiveX controls. http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/ActiveX

Is there a way to show communicator presence in Firefox too?

Answer 1

The NameCrl is an ActiveX component so it will only work in Internet Explorer.

There is no way to do this without custom development. I would suggest using the UCMA APis, building a service that queries presence, and building a javscript API to call this service.
