ie6 browser won't display some Active X controls

[Paul James]

Sometimes my browser won't display an object that I believe is an Active X
control. At least I think they're Active X controls. For example, when I
go to the official US Time site at

http://nist.time.gov/timezone.cgi?Pacific/d/-8/java

I can't read the Time displayed on that page because the control that
displays the current time is empty, except for a small white box containing
a red "x" in the upper left corner of the control.

I'd like for my browser to display these types of controls on legitimate
sites. What can I do to turn them on?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Hi Paul James !

-i had the same problem.. Tested your link and it did´t work !
I solved my problem like this : download Firefox
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/all.html,

and after installation,visit the page you link to,
http://nist.time.gov/timezone.cgi?Pacific/d/-8/java
browser would tell you to download java consoll from Sun microsystem..
Do that and after that installation, restart your IE browser and it will
work !

Work fine for me !
