It's also weird how the names are under the Avatar. But the banner is what I like the best.

You put a code that checks the user agent at the top of the index page of the forum, the code will check if they have any version of firefox, andf if they don't it will forward them to the get firefox page. They have no choice but to get firefox, or they won't be able to access the forum. And since firefox is for Linux, Mac, and Windows, it makes sense. I'nm using firfox right now.
Ban him! :P

Or, a real working code....

Insert to the head of page

Code: Select all

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function FP_checkBrowser(bwsr,ver,url1,url2)  //v1.0
{
 var agt=navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase(),maj=parseInt(navigator.appVersion),tm=false,vm=false; 
 switch(bwsr){
  case "Microsoft Internet Explorer":{
   tm=((agt.indexOf("msie")!=-1)&&(agt.indexOf("opera")==-1));
   // On IE5, the version returns 4, use msie to detect higher verisons
   if(agt.indexOf("msie 5.")!=-1)maj = 5;
   if(agt.indexOf("msie 6.")!=-1)maj = 6;
   break;}
  case "Netscape Navigator":{
   tm=((agt.indexOf('mozilla')!=-1)&&(agt.indexOf('spoofer')==-1)&& 
   (agt.indexOf('compatible') == -1)&&(agt.indexOf('opera')==-1)&&
   (agt.indexOf('webtv')==-1)&&(agt.indexOf('hotjava')==-1));
    break;}
  case "Opera":{
   tm=(agt.indexOf("opera")!=-1);
   if(agt.indexOf("opera 2")!=-1||agt.indexOf("opera/2")!=-1)maj=2;
   if(agt.indexOf("opera 3")!=-1||agt.indexOf("opera/3")!=-1)maj=3;
   if(agt.indexOf("opera 4")!=-1||agt.indexOf("opera/4")!=-1)maj=4;
   if(agt.indexOf("opera 5")!=-1||agt.indexOf("opera/5")!=-1)maj=5;
   break;}
  case "AOL":{
   tm=(agt.indexOf("aol")!=-1);
   if(agt.indexOf("aol 5")!=-1)maj=5;
   if(agt.indexOf("aol 6")!=-1)maj=6;
   break;}
  case "WebTV":{
   tm=(agt.indexOf("webtv")!=-1); 
   break;}
  case "AOL TV":{
   tm=((agt.indexOf("navio")!=-1)||(agt.indexOf("navio_aoltv")!=-1));
   break;}
  case "HotJava":{
   tm=(agt.indexOf("hotjava")!=-1);
   break;}
 }
 
 //Check version
 loc=ver.search('\\+');v=parseInt(ver);if(loc>0){v=parseInt(ver);if(maj>=v)
 vm=true;}else if(maj==v)vm=true;loc=ver.search("any");if(loc>=0)vm=true;
 if(vm&&tm){ if(url1!='')location=url1;}else if(url2!='')location=url2;
}
// -->
</script>
</head>

And, into the body...

Code: Select all

<body onload="FP_checkBrowser('Microsoft Internet Explorer', 'any', /*href*/'index.htm', /*href*/'The Get Firefox or Safari Page')">

</body>
The Get Firefox or Safari Page:the page it will forward too if they don't have it

Disclaimer: Don't use this code, it will really make people mad.... It oly checks for IE, all that other stuff is to help the browser identify the browser.

It took me an hour to make this just so you know. I didn't use some crap generator
