Here is the exact code I use:
<cfif NOT isDefined("SESSION.Browser")>
<cfif ListContains(CGI.HTTP_USER_AGENT, "MSIE", " ")>
<cfset SESSION.Browser = "MSIE">
<cfelse>
<cfset SESSION.Browser = "NTSCP">
</cfif>
</cfif>
I set the value once per session so using the ListContains() function isn't
too big a hit.
Then I can use the SESSION.Browser variable to determine what browser the
user has. I.E.:
<cfif SESSION.Browser EQ "NTSCP">
<!--- Netscape code goes here --->
<cfelse>
<!--- IE code goes here --->
</cfif>
When Netscape 6.0 get better, I'll add an ElseIf to detect it and have a
third variable (or possibly lump it with MSIE since they will share many of
the same features).
