Preserved Topic: Browser detection for NN 6.1

I have some pages that NN 6.0 kills, but that 6.1 renders fairly well. I currently have a script that redirects any browser except IE to a different version of the page. I would like to know how to modify it to make NN 6.1 only and IE to not be redirected.

Here's what I'm currently using:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE = "JavaScript">
<!--

var isIE = (document.all) ? 1 : 0;
var isMozilla = ((document.getElementById) && (!document.all)) ? 1 : 0;

if (!isIE) window.location.replace("http://www.greatdaneclubofraritanvalley.com/html/index.html");
//-->
</script>

I just don't know how to single out NN 6.1

Thanks everybody

I don't have 6.0 (which was weak in it's JS implementation)
but it this might work

if (document.getElementById && !(navigator.appVersion.indexOf(6.0) > -1))

Thanks Bitdamaged

I couldn't even get NN 6.0 to install on my machine. What I have now that really seems to be pretty good so far is NN 6.1.

Thanks again

Shoot I actually have 6.0 and that code won't work

I'm downloading 6.1 right now. I'll see if I can fix the code.

Dammit. I'm not sure it can be done. both are showing up as Mozilla 5.0 in JS you may need to do it on the server side, the header code may be different

Yea

I've been wrestling with it, but can't seem to make anything work. Here's the string NN 6.1 gives me when I check navigator.userAgent:


Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010726 Netscape6/6.1


Is there any way to use a regexp to single out the 6/6.1 at the end of that string? I still have no clue for writting regular expressions, so if I'm way off the mark with that suggestion, just let me know.

Thanks

What's wrong with this:


var isIE = ((document.all) &#0124; &#0124; ((navigator.vendorSub.indexOf(6.1)) > -1)) ? 1 : 0;
var isMozilla = ((document.getElementById) && (!document.all)) ? 1 : 0;

if(!isIE)
window.location.replace("http://www.greatdaneclubofraritanvalley.com/html/index.html");


It does let NN 6.1 thru as part of isIE, but for some reason, it doesn't redirect NN 4.7 like it did before. I'm not quite sure why because navigator.vendorSub is undefined in NN 4.7.

Any thoughts on why this won't work?

Thanks again

Check navigator.userAgent insetad of navigator.vendorSub and see will it work correctly. If it still makes problems I'll write you a regex...

That seems to have done the trick.

Thanks mr.maX!
