Is it possible to do this??

[Anders]

Hi. Is it possible to make a php script that will redirect a guest to a
website, depending on which browser he uses??

I mean, IE doesn't keep the webstandards, so you could make a page for
IE users and one for Firefox users. If the user uses IE, when clicking
a link he will be redirected to that page and same thing with
Firefox...?

So you have two different pages...

cheers

Sure, just check $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] and then decide where to
send them with header("Location: wherever");

I'll get on the anti-user_agent bandwagon and mention that the user
agent can be spoofed to represent a totally different browser than the
person is using.

I'd suggest you perform an additional javascript check on the client
side - using object detection and setting a cookie or modifying the URL
you will be going to in order to reflect the user's browser. But those
issues would best be resolved by asking in comp.lang.javascript

But if someone is spoofing the user agent, they WANT to be handled like
that other browser, right? Why fight them?
