texte = This browser compatibility discussion got me thinking:There actually is about 1.5 % of my visitors I wouldn't mind loosing. Does anybody have a handy, simple and failsafe way to block access for all offline browsers?I suppose something like this should work:[SHOWIF [LOOKUP db=browserlist.db&lookInField=NAME&value=[BROWSERNAME]&returnField=OFFLINE¬Found=]=True] [REDIRECT {some goofy page}] [/SHOWIF]I wouldn't call that simple, though. Among other things it'd mean maintaining a database of all browsers.
