Detect Browser Help Script

Hey all,

I’ve got this really really old IBM file system that was only supported up till IE6 in 2002. Now the users browse to the webpage and the JS detects the IE version…problem is that it doesn’t have IE7 in there.

Can someone please add a line for IE 7 support…it’s not as easy as I thought it would be.

Thanks:

<SCRIPT language=”javascript”>
// Check IE version — 5.x, or 4.01 with SP2.
// Also check for javaEnabled
if ((navigator.appVersion.search(/MSIE 6./) == -1 &&
navigator.appVersion.search(/MSIE 5./) == -1 &&
(navigator.appVersion.search(/MSIE 4.01/) == -1 ||
navigator.appMinorVersion.search(/;SP2/) == -1))
{
document.write(“The version must be at least 4.01 with Service Pack 2”);
document.write(“<br>Please <a href=’http://www.microsoft.com/ie/download/’>click here to download the latest version of Internet Explorer</a>”);
}
else if (!navigator.javaEnabled())
{
document.write(“IDMWS requires Java, which is currently disabled in your browser.”);
document.write(“<br>You can enable Java in the Security tab of the Internet Options dialog.”);
document.write(“<br><br>After enabling Java, you may continue using IDMWS.”);
}
else
{
document.write(“Your browser is up-to-date and your settings are OK.”);
document.write(“You may continue using IDMWS”);
}
</SCRIPT>
