different info for different browsers

[hal12b]

Do you think this code is pretty solid, or would you recommend something else? It would happen on page load. I am just using the Response.write's as examples. Realistically, I would have blocks of code to execute.


<% If Request.Browser.Browser = "IE" Then
Response.Write("hello internet explorer")

ElseIf Request.Browser.Browser = "AppleMAC-Safari" Then

Response.Write("apple apple apple")

ElseIf Request.Browser.Browser = "Firefox" Then

Response.Write("fire!")
Else
'nothing

end if

%>

There was a discussion here about this a while back, you can get some more info here:

The code would work for those three browers but what about the other browsers out there?

I assume the browser statements are designed to handle the quirks for those browers.

I'd let the "Else" statement handle the others. I can see from our stats that these three browsers make up like 99.76% of our traffic. Most Linux users are on Firefox.

It's just specific content that would be displayed, versions won't matter.
