Problems Redirecting to a CSS Page Once NN6 & NN7 are Detected

Ugh, am pulling my hair out over this one...

I want to be able to format a page slightly differently depending on
whether or not a user is visiting the site using either Netscape 6 or
7.

That bit I seem to have sorted out; my problem is getting the &*$%#
link function to work from a document.write statement.

For example, the following code correctly differentiates between the
two Netscapes (at least on Windows):

<html>
<head>
<script>
// netscape browsers
var is_nn6 = (navigator.prod uct == 'Gecko') &&
(!window.find)? true:false;
var is_nn7 = (navigator.prod uct == 'Gecko') &&
(window.find)?t rue:false;
</script>
</head>
<body>
Netscape browsers<br>
<script>
document.write( "NN6:" + is_nn6 + "<BR>");
document.write( "NN7:" + is_nn7 + "<BR>");
</script>
</body>
</body>
</html>

But if I try adding the following code to the header of the page in
order to redirect the page to point to separate .css files, I only get
a page saying "Netscape browsers", so it is somehow blowing out the
valid true or false values I get from the ternary statements.

if (is_nn6)
{document.write ("<link rel=\"styleshee t\"
href=\"nn6.css\ "/>"};
else if (is_nn7)
{document.write ("<link rel=\"styleshee t\"
href=\"nn7.css\ "/>"};

What the heck am I doing wrong/am missing? Probably something silly
and obvious, but I can't figure out what... Ugh. Help much
appreciated.

Check the JavaScript console, if the code throws an error it will be
reported there

Doh! Was missing a ")" at the end of each line of the document.write
statement. And Venkman lead me right to it, like you suggested. ;-)

Ugh.
