My company is considering a Linux port of an ASP.NET project (using Mono), but it uses ActiveX controls, so We want to know if it is feasible.
Sorry if the question is stupid!
My suggestion is to use AJAX or flash to rewrite the entire project so that it runs in any browser on most platforms.
Mono is not ActiveX! Even if you can rewrite for activeX using client mono, your code will only run when the client computer has mono installed.
Is there a way Let ActiveX control run on Linux? I think the answer is no, but I just want to be sure.

Even if ActiveX is supported on Linux, you should still not use it because it is quite unfamiliar in this environment (such as “difficult to maintain”).
