I am looking for the browser ID string for IE 6 for a javascript redirect.



Stolen from http://www.scottandrew.com

He is a Netscape guy and one hell of a coder in anybodys ballpark.

this function kills all IE versions. I would like to just exclude IE6


if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE") > -1) {
  location.replace("get_lost.html");
} 

I will be using it for this;

Yes I know all the reasons not to do this, but I am drawing the line here.

tip forthcoming
