browser detection + redirect

[kettch]

how do i create a script that will detect the difference between IE 5 and IE 5.5? I wrote a website that uses CSS and only 5.5 supports it to the degree that will make the page look good. So what i want is to make a seperate page with minimal CSS that will work for IE 4.0 and IE 5.0. So what must i do to establish that i only want 5.5

i know the basic structure but not the intricacies of javascript in order to actually write viable code.
something like:?
if browser="MSIE5.5" window.location="IE5p5.html" else window.location="IE5.html"

Hi ketth,

try this
-----------------------------------------
browser = navigator.appVersion
if (browser.indexOf("5.5&quot>-1)
window.location="IE5p5.html"
else
window.location="IE5.html"
-----------------------------------------

hope this helps =)
