Using The Browser Capabilities Component

What's the Browser Capabilities Component? It's used to figure out what type of browser and different properties the users browser supports.

To see if a users browser supports JavaScript, use the following code:

<% Dim objBrowserCom Set objBrowserCom = Server.CreateObject("MSWC.BrowserType") If objBrowserCom.JavaScript Then Response.Write "This browser supports JavaScript!" End If Set objBrowserCom = Nothing %>

The Browser Capabilities Component also supports these methods:

Browser Name - (.Browser) Returns a string

Browser Version - (.Version) Returns a string

Check to see if the browser supports frames - (.Frames) Returns a boolean value of true or false

Check to see if the browser supports tables - (.tables) Returns a boolean value of true or false

Check to see if the browser supports background sound - (.BackGroundSounds) Returns a boolean value of true or false

Check to see if the browser supports VBScript - (.VBScript) Returns a boolean value of true or false
