Hello.

I have a HTML page with an ActiveX. I have defined and attached an event
handler with a boolean argument:
function eHandler( ... enable_default)

Event in ActiveX object:
event(.... VARIANNT_BOOL* enable_default)

So in a Win32 developing engitnes, if I want to disable default execution of
the event, I set the enable_default to FALSE in a Win32 developer engines (It
works). But when I want to use it in script, nothing happens (argument is of
the boolean type and it works like local variable).

How can I stop the event execution using script?

Thanks for any suggestions.

you need to a property to the control the script can set. client script does
not support passing value types by ref.

Unfortunatelly, I did't write the control. So I don't have any chance (how I
supposed) to affect default event behavior by script?

your only option is to use vbscript which supports byref.

I tried something like this:

Sub Ctrl_DoNavigateToURL(url, window_name, ByRef enable_default)
... code
enable_default=False
End Sub

But with no effect. But I use VBScript very rarely and I'm not sure code is
OK.

Thanks.
