Can anyone help me I'm having problems to use the following javascript in one of my webpages.

function pathName(fname)

{

 return document.InstallControl.WorkingDir(document.URL) + "/" + fname;

}

It works perfectly in windows XP. Can anybody tell me why it isn't working in windows 98. And if I need to install some package or something that will fix my problem.

As far as I can remember, just setting the codebase attribute of the <object> tag to a valid cab file containing all the proper INIs would install an ActiveX control under Windows 98. If you have VB6, you can get the Package and Deployment wizard to create a ready made page for your component that triggers the install.
