complete activex or JS/ActiveX or XAML
I'm currently developing a chat gadget for out company chat.
My problem at the moment is, doing it all in a big activex component or mostly JS and the logic in an AX com.
if I do the ui in js, there have to be a lot of communication between the script and the ax com.
there have to be also a lot of events (contact list loaded, incoming message, user comes online....)
some features would be very hard to code (dynamic tabs in the chat window...file transfers....)
and coding it completly as a big activeX would be much easier to code...
How can I resize a gadget with only an activex control on it (vertical)?
Or is it possible to create xaml webapps for the sidebar? (with the VS2005 extensions)
are there any other advantages/disadvantages for the two methods?
How would you do this?
thanks and greets from germany!
