I'm also creating a web app, where vlc ActiveX plugin is used, and I would like to set the width and height property of ActiveX by javascript but it doesn't work...

Try the following for internet explorer/activex:

Code: Select all

<table width="720" height="352" align="center" id="vlct">
    <tr><td>
        <object width="100%" height="100%" id="vlc" classid="clsid:E23FE9C6-778E-49D4-B537-38FCDE4887D8"></object>
    </td></tr>
</table>

<script language="javascript">
    dw = document.body.clientWidth*0.8;  // width is 80% of browser
    dh = dw/720*352;  // maintain aspect ratio
    document.getElementById('vlct').style.height = dh;  // set height
    document.getElementById('vlct').style.width = dw;  // set width
</script>

The activex will fill the table, and by adjusting the table dimensions you adjust the activex.

Thanks for the tip. The problem is much more simple than I thought. Just using "vlc.style.width" instead of "vlc.width" resizes the control in IE.

Thanks again for help.
