hi again:D,


that is what i wanted, i wanted a script that could redirect a browser by identifying it's version and thus it's compatability with different script languages and redirect them based on which languages they support to pages that exclude the languages they can't support such as... MSIE 1 & 2 dont support JavaScript or CSS and, i would like them to be sent to a page accordingly.

I've found this scripthat ID's the browser but, not the version and, it does not re-direct could you help with that?
here's the script:

<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE> JavaScript 10 </TITLE>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
// Michael P. Scholtis (mpscho@planetx.bloomu.edu)
function browsertest ()
{document.write("Congratulations, your browser has passed the JavaScript test!!!")}
// -- -->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Original:Gregor (legreg@legreg.de)-->
<!-- Begin
var useragent = navigator.userAgent;
var bName = (useragent.indexOf('Opera') > -1) ? 'Opera' : navigator.appName;
var pos = useragent.indexOf('MSIE');
if (pos > -1) {
bVer = useragent.substring(pos + 5);
var pos = bVer.indexOf(';');
var bVer = bVer.substring(0,pos);
}
var pos = useragent.indexOf('Opera');
if (pos > -1) {
bVer = useragent.substring(pos + 6);
var pos = bVer.indexOf(' ');
var bVer = bVer.substring(0, pos);
}
if (bName == "Netscape") {
var bVer = useragent.substring(8);
var pos = bVer.indexOf(' ');
var bVer = bVer.substring(0, pos);
}
if (bName == "Netscape" && parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 5) {
var pos = useragent.lastIndexOf('/');
var bVer = useragent.substring(pos + 1);
}
document.writeln('<b>Browser Name: </b>' + bName + '<br>');
document.writeln('<b>Browser Version: </b>' + bVer + '<br>');
// End -->
</script>
</BODY>
</HTML>

thank you for your help, any more help would be greatfully recived.
thank you in advance.

try this (http://www.webreference.com/tools/browser/javascript.html) browser sniffer.

if(is_ie6) { window.location.href="MyIE6page.html"; }

Search the web and try to write some code yourself.

You might be better off to just not use proprietary coding, though...
