4.2.2.2 ActiveX

If you use an ActiveX-capable browser (e.g., MS Internet Explorer 4.0 or better), you can subscribe to an ActiveX extension that enables you to upload files by 'drag & drop'. A specific icon will be placed prominently in the headers of your folder pages. Just drop a file onto this icon to upload it to the current folder. The extension also uploads groups of files -- a feature not provided by the standard file upload function of today's browsers.

If you plan to use this option,

  • make sure that your web browser can process ActiveX and that this functionality is in fact activated;
  • click  Options    Preferences   in your main menu bar;
  • mark the checkbox to the left of Use ActiveX and 'OK' the action
  • .
