A:
You can't. ActiveX is an IE-only thing. If you need cross-browser support, you're gonna have to re-think what you're trying to do...

ActiveXObject only works in IE, maybe you should try and explain what you want to achieve?
I'm guessing it has something to do with file handling, more specifically I'm guessing it has something to do with uploading, in that case you probably want to do it in flash.

A:
Firefox and most other browsers do not allow access to the local file system for security reasons.
There is an ActiveX project for Firefox (link), but if you ge it working in Firefox, what about other browsers?
