<br/>> Hi Joel,
<br/>>
<br/>> Would you like to try np-activex [1] ?
<br/>>
<br/>> np-activex is a npapi plugin for Chrome on Windows, at the same time,
<br/>> it is a ActiveX wrapper.
<br/>> With np-activex, users can load ActiveX control in Chrome for Win,
<br/>> without iexplore.
<br/>> Actually, with Wine's help, np-activex work on Linux as well, though
<br/>> you have to use Wine to run Chrome for Win on Linux.
<br/>>
<br/>> How ever, there are some bugs which will bring us to troubles:
<br/>>
<br/>> Bug 21232 - Chrome can't load any webpage unless --no-sandbox is used
<br/>> Bug 27248 - cannot unpack *.crx (extensions or themes) in Chrome
<br/>> unless --single-process is used
<br/>> Bug 27168 - chromium-based apps can't load https sites
<br/>>
<br/>> Unfortunately, to workaround all these bugs, we have to use special
<br/>> version of Chrome with special version of np-activex.
<br/>> I'm glad if this example is helpful for you:
<br/>> A guide to sign in China Merchants Bank (CMBChina) on Linux: Wine
<br/>> Chrome + ActiveX for Chrome + User Agent Switcher
<br/>> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/non-ie-online-banking/EodETqFrcY0/ySq5PTXax_MJ
<br/>>
<br/>> There might be other bugs related to Chrome/ActiveX, some of them are
<br/>> covered in this list:
<br/>> http://code.google.com/p/online-banking-with-wine/wiki/buglist
<br/>>
<br/>> Let me know if I can help you further, also please let me know if you
<br/>> have good news ;-)
<br/>> Good luck.
