Alternate code for Netscape

[DeepBlerg]

Hi,

I have a form which works ony my site and it is fine for Explorer 4+ browsers but with Netscape 4+ browsers it ignores a lot of the script, this is what it ignores:

function detectbrowser()
{
Browsername=navigator.appName;
browser="0";
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("2.0&quot) {browser="2"};
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("3.0&quot) {browser="3"};
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("4.0&quot) {browser="4"};

document.sale.code.value=navigator.appCodeName;
document.sale.sbrowser.value=navigator.appName;
document.sale.sversion.value=navigator.appVersion;
document.sale.sagent.value=navigator.userAgent;
document.sale.splatform.value=navigator.platform;
}


and this:
if (sale.country.options[0].selected) {
alert('Please select your country.');
{scountry.focus(); return false;};



and this:

return confirm('Is this information you have entered correct?\n\n ' + 'Title: ' + selectedsalItem + '\n ' + 'Name: ' + document.sale.name.value + '\n ' + 'E-mail address: ' + document.sale.email.value + '\n ' + 'Country: ' + document.sale.country.value + '\n\n\n ' + 'Press OK to continue or Cancel to make changes \n');


and also this:

<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<!--
var now = new Date();
document.sale.sdate.value = now;
//-->
</script>


is there alternative script that I can use so that both Netscape 4+ and IE 4+ browsers understand and process it.

Thanks.

sale is the name of the form.

i called the function like this:

<script language=&quot;Javascript&quot;>
<!--
detectbrowser();
//-->
</script>

and this:

<form onsubmit=&quot;return formvalidation(this)&quot; method=&quot;POST&quot; name=&quot;sale&quot; action=&quot;processing.asp&quot;>

Have you got a </FORM> ? NS is very fussy about tag closure.

It's be easier for us if you upload the page and put a link to it for us to see the whole thing in action.

(though my index page (only) absolutely slaughters netscape at the moment and I just can't see why...better have a play later!)
