i have one that i pulled together for CSS selection based on browser type.
only identifies IE/NS underWin/Mac at mo, but code is rudimentary enough to
be extensible to all OS's/platforms/browsers.

it can pull some neat tricks, ie pull some great effects in IE4++, and then
leave out any conflicting stuff that plagues NS and Opera.

sample as:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function checkbrowser() {
appVer=navigator.appVersion.toLowerCase();appNum=navigator.appVersion.substr
ing(0,1);appName=navigator.appName;var compName="";if
(appVer.indexOf("win")!=-1) {compName="Win";}  else if
(appVer.indexOf("mac")!=-1) {compName="Mac";} else {compName="?";}

if (appName=="Netscape" && appNum>=4 && compName=="Win")
{document.write("<link type='text/css' href='css/aiwinnn7.css'
rel='stylesheet'>");}
	else if (appName=="Netscape" && appNum>=4 && compName=="Mac")
{document.write("<link type='text/css' href='css/aimacnn7.css'
rel='stylesheet'>");}
	else if (appName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer" && appNum>=4 &&
compName=="Win") {document.write("<link type='text/css'
href='css/aiwinie7.css' rel='stylesheet'>");}
	else if (appName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer" && appNum>=4 &&
compName=="Mac") {document.write("<link type='text/css'
href='css/aimacie7.css' rel='stylesheet'>");}
else {
}
}
// -->
</script>

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with finding a correct cross browser script that will
display my pages correctly in both IE and Opera (i did not check Nestcape).
I had written a script in php and the display was great but some search
engines seem to get confused.
Do you have any ideas ? I heard there was some possibility in Javascript but
I want to use a single page (no redirects to several pages).


Thanks a lot,
