What i am trying to do is use ASP to detect the browser (PLEASE don't tell me to do it in Javascript, i don't want to). I have the code for doing the detection which works just fine (i stole it from webmonkey). here is the code.
<%
dim BrowserType
set bc = Server.CreateObject("MSWC.
if bc.browser="IE" then
BrowserType = "MSIE"
elseif bc.browser="Netscape" then
BrowserType = "Netscape"
elseif bc.browser="Lynx" then
BrowserType = "Lynx"
end if
%>
<%
select case BrowserType
case "Lynx"
Response.Write("You're using Lynx! Whatever!")
case "MSIE"
Response.Write("you are using IE")
case "Netscape"
Response.Write("You're using Netscape!")
case else
Response.Write("You're using some other browser I don't know about.")
End select
%>
what i would like to do is instead of using Response.Write to write out what the user is using, is include another file for my navigation. ex:
<!--#include file="navie.inc"-->
I tried just replacing the line:
Response.Write("you are using IE") with the include line, this does not work, return errors. i tried doing something similar to:
Response.Write("<!--#inclu
of course, errors. I know what i am trying to do it doable, Hotbot uses something like this on their site. Anyways, I would be much obliged if anyone can help.
