Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: Spanish, defect, P3)

Description

[Xan Lopez]

seat.es (a somewhat big spanish car company) redirects you to the typical:
"sorry but we don't know what f* browser are you using" with Mozilla in Linux. 
Let's Evangelize them.

heh, it blocks Netscape 6.x too, and konqueror, and...
you get the picture

bad sniffing because of old DynAPI, adding dependecy.

Here is the bad sniffing code :

var isNS = navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape") >=0;
var isIE = navigator.appName.indexOf("Explorer") >=0;

function filtro(){
	
	if (isIE) var vers =
parseInt(navigator.appVersion.substring(navigator.appVersion.lastIndexOf('MSIE')+5));
	
	//Explorer para Mac
	if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("Mac") != -1 && !isNS) {
		location.href = 'sorry.html';
	}
	//Netscape >4.0  and >4.5 or 6 
	else if (((navigator.appVersion.substring(0,3)<4.5 &&
parseInt(navigator.appVersion)>=4) || parseInt(navigator.appVersion)==5) && isNS) {
		location.href='sorry.html';
	}
	//Navegadores 3
	else if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion)<4){
		location.href='sorry.html';
	}
	//Explorer 6
	else if (isIE && vers>=6){
		location.href='welcome.html';
	}
	//open web
	else {
		location.href='welcome.html';
	}

}
