You can do one of the following.

What about PlugIns, or ActiveX, are they supported?
The only answer we can give is "maybe". It depends on how the plugin or ActiveX control requests its data. If it goes through the standard protocols to get its data then it may work. If it doesn't then there is no chance it will work. Even then it may be dependent on the way that the end-user has both his system and the Plugin configured. The only advice we can offer is to try it and see. But even if it does work we would suggest you are very thorough in testing it in all the scenarios in which your presentation will be used.
Can I use a CGI/ASP/PHP scripts on my pages?
No, such pages require server-side processing and Fast EBook Compiler doesn't know internally what to do with this stuff. However, you may still have forms on your pages and links to the scripts that are on the Internet, but it would require the user to have an active Internet connection.
