Browser/Platform Detect/Redirect

[BDNFLNC]

Hey all.

I have a site with a DHTML nav on the home page and it appears differently on the PC vs the MAC. Also in Netscape vs. IE.

I would like to use a script that will redirect to index1.html or index2.html based on the OS and the browser.

Is there a script that is easily modified by a novice? I want to have a line for NS4.x to index2, NS7 to index1, etc...

I searched the archives but didn't come up with the right scripts.

Thanks.

Kenn

http://www.irt.org,

there are several articles about password protection by having the user enter a userid that is actually the root of an HTML document name. You place one file on the server for each user, and if user 'ABC' logs in successfully he/she is directed 'ABC.HTML', which can redirect them to the protected part of the site. If the user enters an invalid ID, they get a 404 error - "Page not found" and they presumably give up.

Still not totally secure, but better than embedding user ids in your HTML code.

Check it out.

I think the scariest part is that I knew what you meant! (for which thread)

Hehhe.

Thanks.
