[Javascript] Mac Sniffer

[Muchacho, Laurent (TWIi London)]

Hi there it is 

d = document;
function brow(){
this.ie = (d.all)? true:false;
this.ns = (d.layers)? true:false;
this.ns6 = (d.getElementById&&!document.all)? true:false
this.mac = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Mac")!=-1)? true:false;
this.win = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("win")!=-1)? true:false;
}
var bw = new brow()


if (bw.mac){
	alert('this is a mac (bad)')
	if (bw.ie){
		alert('ie true')
	}
}
if (bw.win){
	alert('this is a PC running window (good)')
	if (bw.ie){
		alert('ie true')
	}
}
or that will work too with any combinaison

if (bw.mac&&bw.ie){
	alert('this is a mac (bad) running ie (even badder)')
}

Laurent

hi,

it's important that i find & implement a highly reliable Mac Sniffer 
and i found/adapted the following code from Netscape's "Ultimate 
JavaScript Client Sniffer" here: 

http://www.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/sniffer/browser_type.html

could someone please tell me if this incredibly simple code will 
suffice in sniffing out all of the various incarnations of Mac 
operating systems out there? (code follows)

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
var agt=navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase();
var is_mac    = (agt.indexOf("mac")!=-1);

if (agt.indexOf("mac")!=-1) {
window.location.href = "for_mac.html";
}
else {
window.location.href = "for_pc.html";
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

it seems to work--it's just that i don't have a lot of different Macs 
at my disposal to test this on.

muchos gracias,

tom
