If You Go To This (http://javascript.internet.com/user-details/browser-info.html) Page, You'll Go To A Page Where There's A Bit Of Script For Gathering Information On The Users' Browsers, And They Also Have An Example.
But There Is One Part That I Don't Get, The "Codename" Part. I Looked At This With IE6, And Mozilla 1.4.

IE:
Browser Name: Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Code Name: Mozilla.
Version: 4.0.

Mozilla:
Browser Name: Netscape.
Code Name: Mozilla.
Version: 5.0.

I'm Confused.

Correct. IE also displays "Mozilla" for the navigator.appCodeName property just to be compatible.

Uhhh...I'm still confused. That's not going to help me any, it displaying it that way. It's very...misguiding.
