Presumably he needs to do this client-side, because server-side it's cake.
One way that occurs to me is to do an "if..then" in the script in the
header. if ie, then window.location = the ie page.. else the netscape page.
Don't even have anything on the page after that. No <body>.
OR you could use the if to decide which page to show, and completely write
the remainder of that page with document.write()'s. But boy would that be
ugly....

If you have access to ColdFusion (or I would assume any similar AppServer)
you can detect using CF and include the different forms (or just the code).
