Excluding Unknown Browsers

If you provide only evidence for specific browsers in the detection logic, your site will not be usable if a visitor uses a different browser. Consider the following example:

Code:

---

// WRONG Application - not to use!
if (document.all)
{
// Internet Explorer
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" src="style-ie.css">');
}
else if (document.layers)
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" src="style-nn.css">');
}

---

Note like the precedence example of style only for Internet Explorer and Navigator 4 and also then only if the visitor has activated the support Javascript in own browser. The customers of Netscape 6, Netscape 7, CompuServe 7, Mozilla, Work will not be in a position to visualizing the site correctly.


Unidentifying Browsers

Authors of a general failure of the network will be formed to assume that when a browser is not Netscape Navigator 4, Internet Explorer, it should be and vice versa. For example:

Code:

---

// WRONG Application - not to use!
if (document.all)
{
  // Internet Explorer
  elm = document.all['menu'];
}
else
{
  // Assume Navigator 4
  elm = document.layers['menu'];
}

---

Mark on how the above example assumed that each use browser which Internet Explorer is not navigator 4 and tried layers.

Try it will work Definitely :

Code:

---

if (Request.Headers["User-Agent"] != null &&
(Request.Browser["IsMobileDevice"] == "true"
|| Request.Browser["BlackBerry"] == "true" ||
Request.UserAgent.ToUpper().Contains("MIDP")
|| Request.UserAgent.ToUpper().Contains("CLDC"))
|| Request.UserAgent.ToLower().Contains("iphone"))
