IE 6+ only

[robertsont]

I would like a page to only display if it ibeing used with IE 6+; is it possible to have some script that will return a message asking the user to upgrade their version to view the page if they are running a lower version?

Regards,

Tom

Of course, I'll always be shown this message as I use FireFox ;)

Here is a possible solution using JavaScript :

if(navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE 6")<0)
{
alert("You are not IE 6");
}

I take it that code would go in a sniffer???

Just put it in <script> tags in you html page or in a separate .js file and reference it like so from your html page:

<script src="myScript.js" language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
</script>
