156378 - wpba.com - gives bogus alert on all pages for linux mozilla

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[Jeremy M. Dolan]

http://www.wpba.com/includes/obj.js

if(platform!="other"&&browser!="other"){
...
}else{
	alert("Your browser is currently unsupported. Some functionality will be
missing.\nProceed with caution. Supported browsers:Mac and PC:IE4+,NS4+");
}

It's bogus of the JS to check platform if it's Mozilla/5.0, since Moz works the
same on everything.

Site seems to work fine, other then the alert on EVERY page.
