> Wicket currently detects wich type of ajax transport has to be used by detecting if the browser supports activeX. Wouldn't it be better to use activeX only if the browser is IE and lower than version 7, because as far as I know that's the only browser you would want to use activeX on. 
> The reason i'm asking is because i'm testing with the new Opera Mobile browser (9.5 beta), ajax isn't working because wicket tries to use an activeX object. I fixed this for now in my own enviremont but maybe it's good to change this in a future release ?
