Here’s a tool that will help out those webmasters that haven’t updated their pages to conform to the mandated change to IE’s handling of Object tags. Mind you that the plaintiff in this could care less that they’ve only hurt webmasters and users in this silly patent suit.
The ActiveX Analyzer Tool is designed to scan for and identify object, applet, and embed tags in code. The utility will output the complete file path, line number, and literal script that the tag(s) reside in so that the user can easily open the file and locate the code. Also, a total count of matches will be displayed to the user.
