open jquery dialog with php / open javascript function with php

Hi!

i want a piece of php code to check what type of browser someone is using and make a jquery dialog open if they use MIE.

The dialog works, the php browser check-code works, but i cant get the php-code to open the jQuery dialog window..
What am i doing wrong?

here are the codes i'm using:

thanks!

BROWSER CHECK AND OPEN DIALOG:

<?  
ini_set('display_errors', 'On');
error_reporting(E_ALL);

    if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']) && 
    (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE') !== false))
       echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\">IEuser();</script>";
    else
        echo "Yes, you're not using IE!<br><br>";
?>

Open in new window

OPEN DIALOG:

<script type="text/javascript">
function IEuser() { 
        $('#dialog').dialog('open');
};
</script>

Open in new window

thanks for your reply jrm!

it isn't opening the dialog. instead, i get this error from ie:

Message: Object expected
Line: 65 ===<script type="text/javascript">$(document).ready(function (){IEuser();});</script>
Char: 31
Code: 0

Is it all versions of IE or just IE6?
Try removing the "type" from your <script> tags, especially for including jquery.

<script language=”javascript” src=”your-path-to-jquery-version.js”></script>

Thanks JRM, your first post was actually working!

I had a typo in my javascript function.. "IEuser"

Thank you very much!
