Are you able to point me in the right direction to have a menu bar that changes colour (or does something) without having an Active X warning come up every time-as I don’t think users will like this?

Thank you,
Jonathan W.

Hi, Jonathan,

The Active X warning appears in Internet Explorer anytime users check a site that uses a scripting language, such as JavaScript, on their local computer. That’s a security feature in IE designed to help warn users about potentially malicious programs. Once they have uploaded the page to the server and viewed it online, that message should disappear (unless they are using the most protective settings in IE).

In designing your site, you can, however, avoid this completely now and create rollover link effects by using CSS (instead of using rollover images with JavaScript). This approach has many benefits, including being more search-engine friendly and more accessible. You’ll find a free tutorial on how to create links like this on my site at:

All my best,
