I have experimented with ageing and recent versions of Opera, Netscape, Internet Explorer, and Mozilla and eventually settled with the script above.

The basis for my web site is x2t which (just like this XOOPS web site)looks terrible through particular browsers, especially IE5x. So bad infact that I decided not to even let clients in if they were using any of the above.

I found several articles where the authors would slate web developers who "can't develop web sites good enough for their particular browser type."

I felt that less damage would be done in the longer term if I redirected clients to a page that suggested their browser was in need of an update and supplied the link to do so.

The option I devised is to add the following code to the very, very top of your index.php file. You know, the one in your root directory with mainfile.php. This will redirect ie5 and early netscape users to two html files, one called stop.html and the other called stop2.html. Make those two html files yourself and put something in them like "your browser is too old/crap for our site" and perhaps even provide a link to the upgrade sites. Put them in your root folder too.

<script>
version=parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf('5.')>-1){version=5};
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf('6.')>-1){version=6};
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf('7.')>-1){version=7};
browser='OTHER';
if (navigator.appName=='Netscape'){browser='NS'+version;}
if (navigator.appName=='Microsoft Internet Explorer'){browser='MSIE'+version;}
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf('MSIE 3')>0) {browser='MSIE3';}
if(browser == 'NS5'){browser='NS6'};
if (browser=='MSIE3') {window.location='/stop.html'}
if (browser=='MSIE4') {window.location='/stop.html'}
if (browser=='MSIE5') {window.location='/stop.html'}
if (browser=='NS3') {window.location='/stop2.html'}
if (browser=='NS4') {window.location='/stop2.html'}
</script>

Trust me, it works!- UKDave

Thanks Chapi, I found it on line 54. I was looking in the wrong file (register.php.)

Is there a User Registration Template somewhere?

I'd like to get rid of the time zone dropdown, can anyone help please?

I would like to do the opposite. I need to figure out how to get my registered XOOPS users into an LDAP store. How do I do that?

Thanks Chapi, I'll keep my eye on this thread.

Hi Chapi,
I have installed multiple instances of TinyEvent and am pleased with it however the Waiting-Content_Block.txt file was missing from the package. Would you be so kind as to post it for me please?

thanks, ukdave.

According to the installation file inside the TinyEvent module download there is supposed to be a file called 'waiting_content_block.txt' which is necessary for displaying waiting content. Can anyone post a copy of the file or perhaps tell me how to get it working instead please?
