258042 - t-mobile.com - JavaScript menus not supported on Linux (bogus browser-sniffing)

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[Mats Palmgren (inactive)]

Spawned off from bug 206343.

At http://support.t-mobile.com/productSelector.html I still don't see the
dropdown menu when hovering "Products" for example.
This is because Linux is not supported (isSupported == false) according to:
http://www.t-mobile.com/masthead/js/BrowserAbsLayers/dynamic.js

var isSupported = true;

if ( is.win )
{
	// Supported Windows browsers
	if ( is.ie5 || is.ie6 )
	{
		balFilename = "WindowsIE.js";
	}
	else if ( is.nav5up )
	{
		balFilename = "WindowsNav6.js";
	}
	else if ( is.nav47up )
	{
		//balFilename = "WindowsNav.js";
	}
}
else if (is.mac)
{
	if ( is.ie5up )
	{
		balFilename = "MacIE5.js";
	}
	else if ( is.ie4up )
	{
		//balFilename = "MacIE4.js";
	}
	else if ( is.nav4 )
	{
		//balFilename = "MacNav4.js";
	}
	else if ( is.nav5up )
	{
		balFilename = "WindowsNav6.js";
	}
}
if ( balFilename != null )
{
	document.writeln('<script language="javascript" src="' + balPath + balFilename
+ '"></script>');
}
else
{
	isSupported = false;
//	alert("browser not supported");
}

No less a problem on OS/2.
