Mozilla ActiveX Control

The Mozilla ActiveX Control uses the Gecko layout engine to deliver a fully programmable HTML and XML rendering control for ActiveX developers. The API is similar to the Internet Explorer ActiveX control so it maintains a high degree of compatibility.

While Trident -based browsers such as Internet Explorer need ActiveX to embed software such as Flash allowing the user to use Flash applications in IE, Mozilla ActiveX Control is not necessary to run Flash applications in Gecko-based browsers since Gecko-based browsers have their own plugins for embedding applications such as Flash.

Mozilla ActiveX Control can be used by ReactOS to gain compatibility with some Windows programs.

Gecko is the same engine that powers Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox and numerous other rich content applications.
