JSCRIPT Browser Check

[nklein75]

Can someone help with the code to do a browser check in JS. Here is my problem I have a webpage on my website (on an intranet) that needs to be viewed in IE. So I want to do a browser check that will do nothing if IE is being used. If Netscape is being used I want it to open a new window with IE, to the same web page. If possible I would like it to also close the netscape window. If that is not possible then I would like a message window to tell the user to use IE. Thanks for the help....

Man, you are persistent.
First. you can not execute programs from javascript. Therefore you can not open explorer from netscape.
Second, why don't you design your site to standards not browser, huh?

I just need this one page veiwed in IE. Thats it. The rest of the site is fine for all browsers.

If you must find out what browser the user is running, you can use the navigator object.

Check out Webreference (http://www.webreference.com/js/column6/browser.html) for more information.

the best thing i can say is that the end-user will view your page in what ever he
chooses! and that if this page is so important you should work on it to be cross
browser compatible!
