Browser Version Check

Is there a builtin feature to validate a user's browser?

I am having some difficulty with a mod (cometchat) and IE6.

Interestingly, if I hit my site and load a blank page (which activates cometchet) everything work s well for IE6...

If I try and load it through VB4, it crashes the user's browser if it is IE6.

I have spent days playing with different ideas and css/js to no avail.
The developers aren't all the helpful either.

Right now I have a profile "bit" field to have users choose if they want to use the chat or not.

I would rather just have VB4 validate the browser version and shut off the chat if it is IE6

Have you googled it? I wrote a mod and didn't want it to 'work' if the user was using IE, so I put a condition around it. I found the condition by using google (and then testing, of course).

I am trying the following as a plugin...
So far doesn't look like it is working - but I need to run and will play with later tonight

PHP Code:


		
			
$ua = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

if (strpos($ua,'MSIE') != false && strpos($ua,'Opera') === false)

{

if (strpos($ua,'Windows NT 5.2') != false)

{ if(strpos($ua,'.NET CLR') === false) return; }

if (substr($ua,strpos($ua,'MSIE')+5,1) < 7)

{

$template_hook['footer_links'] .='';

}

}

else

{

$template_hook['footer_links'] .='

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="http://xxx.com/cometchat/cometchatcss.php" charset="utf-8" />

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script>jqcc=jQuery.noConflict(true);</script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://xxx.com/cometchat/cometchatjs.php" charset="utf-8"></script>

';

}

Hmmm...

What about:
<![if !IE 6]>

use is_browser function .. will help you much :)

in php like this :-

PHP Code:


		
			
if(is_browser('ie'))
{
    // Ie
} elseif (is_browser('ie') == 6) {
    // if ie is 6 
} elseif (is_browser('ie', 7)) {
    // true if is ie 7 or grator.
} elseif (is_browser('firefox')) {
    // its Frefox 
}
/// .......... etc

more explanation found on "includes/functions.php" line ~ 5528

best regards

umm i think this will help two.

PHP Code:


		
			
if(!(is_browser('ie') == 6)) {
    $template_hook['footer_links'] .='
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="http://xxx.com/cometchat/cometchatcss.php" charset="utf-8" />
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>jqcc=jQuery.noConflict(true);</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://xxx.com/cometchat/cometchatjs.php" charset="utf-8"></script>';
}

thanks everyone...

Actually I used the following:

PHP Code:


		
			
$template_hook['footer_links'] .='

<![if !IE 6]>

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="all" href="http://aquiacreek.com/cometchat/cometchatcss.php" charset="utf-8" />

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script>jqcc=jQuery.noConflict(true);</script>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://aquiacreek.com/cometchat/cometchatjs.php" charset="utf-8"></script>

<![endif]>

';

Almotmaiz - thanks though, with your version I can easily evaluate for <= IE6...
