Yeah it's possible, but why would you do it that way?

It would make more sense to redirect dependant on browser.

You might try something like this:
Code: [ Select ]
<script language="javascript">
<!--
uaString = navigator.userAgent;

if(uaString.indexOf("98")!=-1)
location.href="http://www.yahoo.com";

else if(uaString.indexOf("NT 5.1")!=-1)
location.href="http://www.lycos.com";

else
location.href="http://www.somedefaultpage.com";
//-->
</script>
  1. <script language="javascript">
  2. <!--
  3. uaString = navigator.userAgent;
  5. if(uaString.indexOf("98")!=-1)
  6. location.href="http://www.yahoo.com";
  8. else if(uaString.indexOf("NT 5.1")!=-1)
  9. location.href="http://www.lycos.com";
  11. else
  12. location.href="http://www.somedefaultpage.com";
  13. //-->
  14. </script>


I'm not positive how XP reports itself - I think it's as NT 5.1. If you're running XP now you can click here and see the whole userAgent string. You might want to check it with Netscape too since there are sometimes minor differences in how they report stuff. For example, IE reports 98 as "Windows 98" and NE as "Win98" which is why I just used 98 in the test above.
