Question

I’m developing a website that I want to disallow opening in IE 6.0 Browser for some security reasons. I know every browser has a unique header information which sent when we request webpage so can I block my website opening in IE 6.0 or any browser using javascript,php or using anything ?

Answer 1

Sure, check this out (CGI method, PHP method, JS method)

PHP:

    <?php
   if (eregi("MSIE",getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT")) ||
       eregi("Internet Explorer",getenv("HTTP_USER_AGENT"))) {
    Header("Location: http://www.domain.com/ie_reject.html");
    exit;
   }
?>

JS:

<!--
if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer") {
        document.location = "http://www.domain.com/ie_reject.shtml"; 
} else { 
        document.location = "http://www.domain.com/realhomepage.html";
}
// -->
