I've seen plenty of browser detection scripts but they all seem to be slightly different and don't really fit my needs. I have various places where if the browser is IE I'd like to display [this html code] else [display this]. For example, if a browser is IE I want to use this CSS file
otherwise use a different one and if it's IE make this cell x pixels high else make it y pixels high. I'm sure this is easy ....
I am using CSS text-shadow but of course IE doesn't like it. I've looked into some methods for achieving the same effect in IE, but it's not at all the same so I've opted for another method..I'm going to have two layers. In layer1, it will be standard text, shadowed with CSS. I then screenshotted that and will use the resulting jpeg for layer2.I was then planning to find a script that:1. Detects if browser is IE2. If IE, layer2 is visible, layer1 is invisible3. If not IE, layer1 is visible, layer2 is invisibleThe problem is that I can't find a simple script to detect if the browser's IE or not. I can find loads of scripts that check what version of IE someone's using. The version isn't important!

View 3 Replies View Relatedmy CSS style is:
.text{font-family: Gill Sans MT, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;}
But Gill Sans is by nature much smaller than Verdana at the same pixel size.
So IF the browser does not have Gill Sans, I want to change the font size to 10pixels.
Is it impossible?

is there a code where I can detect if the browser is IE6 or IE7 and send them to another webpage?
my current design is not compatible with IE6 or 7 and i want to make a new page that's compatible.
Basically, I need a browser detection script that will detect what version of what browser the user is reading. My site works with IE 5.5SP2 and up, Netscape 7.2 and up, Opera 7.1 and up, and Firefox 1.0 and up (have not tested on any Mac browsers).
What I want the script to do is once it's detected a version of one of these browsers or higher, to continue loading the page. If it detects a lower version, or any other browser, I want it to direct users to a page telling them they are using an old or untested browser, where I have links to update the tested browsers and a link to continue to the site anyways
I have tried a couple scripts, but they only partially work. The one below seems to work so far for the two browsers I can test on (It goes to the good page for IE 6 and the bad page for NS 4.79 (I added Firefox and Opera myself, so I don't know if it works).
browser = navigator.appName
ver = navigator.appVersion
version = ver.substring(0,1)
if (browser=="Internet Explorer") {
if (version<="5.5")
document.location.href="index2.html"
}
if (browser=="Netscape") {
if (version<="7.2")
document.location.href="index2.html"
}
if (browser=="Firefox") {
if (version<="1.0")
document.location.href="index2.html"
}
if (browser=="Opera") {
if (version<="7.1")
document.location.href="index2.html"
}
How do I specify that IE 5.5 has to be 5.5 SP2? And how do I specify that every other browser in the universe except those lined out above in the code has to go to index2.html? I don't know how to specify that Safari has to go to index2.html while Netscape 8 doesn't.
Is there any way that an Apache server can recognise that a users browser has changed from your web site to another site. ie. is there a way of executing a CGI based on when the address bar no longer has your FDQN.
Would this be via Javascript [if possible?] or ???
I am a newbee to JavaScript was was just fiddling around with events for a browser... Is it possible to detect the browser process termination done through the Task Manager in windows. Process:
1. Goto Task Manager
2. Right click on the browser process e.g. iexplorer.exe
3. Select "end process" to terminate the process
JavaScript can detect the window close by using body onunload event. On the similar bases, is it possible to detect the process termination event using JavaScript?? I tried a simple example using body onunload, but it failed to run the onunload event during the browser process termination. And i am of the opinion that this is not possible as all using JavaScript since terminating a process is a system / OS level task and is not related to browser events.
I am having problem regarding browser issues! I need to accomplish this task:Browser requirements should be( IE7,IE8,Firefox 3, Firefox 4, Safari 5, Opera, Chrome) and higher. I want to detect if user's browser is below the requirements compatibility above then I want them to redirect to error page, let say compatibility.html if browser is below requirements!..If the browser meets the requirments, it should continue to load the page requested by the user.

One more thing that is - it shudnt be a code that runs on body unload as that code will also run when the use is navigating from one page to another within the same application as well.

I'm working on a website, where a fixed <div> holds the menu and links id's on the page with <a href="#">'s - like this:
HTML Code:
I'm wondering if it's possible to detect which of the <h1 id="i1">Item1</h1>'s that's currently shown on in the browser window? My idea is to highlight the menu-link(s) (e.g. by changing color) of the items headings shown in the browser window (so it changes as the user scrolls down through the page)?
