A dirty little browser checker (browsercheck.php by Elmer Masters)

Thu, 2 Jun 2005 19:41:18 -0500

This tidbit just grabs the raw browser ID string from the $_SERVER variable. It looks for a couple of strings that identify IE, Opera, Mozilla, and Netscape 7.x. If it doesn't find one of these it assumes an old browser that can't deal with things like CSS and alerts the user. Finally, it sets a $_SESSION variable that can be checked later. Quick and dirty, but works for me :)
