This is totally evil
Tuesday, February 26th, 2002 02:57 pmCheck out this, yet another Microsoft "innovation", which only lets Internet Explorer 5.* view certain comments. Maybe I'm out of date, though, as I can't be bothered to follow the browser wars any more (as far as I'm concerned, if a site won't display properly in Konqueror - or lynx (!) - it isn't worth looking at).
I've noticed in my attempts to educate myself about Javascript, that there is a way to detect the browser that viewers are using (Konqueror has a nice alias feature to get round this - it can pretend it's Netscape or whatever). Is there any way I could use this to render my pages unviewable in Internet Explorer? OTOH, maybe I should be kinder and use the script to include comments like "I see you're using Internet Explorer. Do you realise what a sap you are?"
