In onLoad JavaScript, I'm getting "Error: Permission denied to access property 'classes'" when I access Components.classes; how do I enable that permission?

I need to emulate several ActiveX functions in my client's web application. I have located several Mozilla web pages that describe how to do the things I need, and I have attempted to implement those instructions. However, I can't seem to get past the first line of code. In my web page, I am calling a JavaScript function using the onLoad attribute of the <body> tag. I am using the Navigator object to determine that the browser is Firefox. I then attempt to access the extension classes using the following code on lines 51 and 52 of the Download.js file: var C = Components; var CC = C.classes;

The Web Console gives me these two messages: [13:51:55.621] The Components object is deprecated. It will soon be removed. @ http://distribution:781/NewDDI/DownLoad.js:51 [13:51:55.621] Error: Permission denied to access property 'classes' @ http://distribution:781/NewDDI/DownLoad.js:52

How do I enable adequate permission to be able to access the Components classes?

I think Components is available only in extensions (or otherwise privileged code) and not in ordinary web pages.
