Solved it..!

August 20th, 2007

Okay, so i can solve the I.E. problems by writing a .htaccess file with this in it..

# MS Internet Explorer - Mozilla v4
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla/4(.*)MSIE
RewriteRule ^index\\.html$ /index.IE.html [L]

# Netscape v6.+ - Mozilla v5
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla/5(.*)Gecko
RewriteRule ^index\\.html$ /index.NS5.html [L]

# Lynx or Mozilla v1/2
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Lynx/ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Mozilla/[12]
RewriteRule ^index\\.html$ /index.20.html [L]

# All other browsers
RewriteRule ^index\\.html$ /index.32.html [L]

And THEN, I can write individual CSS scripts and pages for each type of I.E available, with all it’s foibles..

Or perhaps I should spend the time taking pics… ok….

    I guess you know that your pictures are breaking out of the main column to the right - on Mac / Safari anyway - presumably because you don’t want to resize them (?) but also, it would be nice to see something pictorial in the RSS feed - most of your posts are blank in my reader. Just something for when you want to be a geek again for an hour or two.

    No, I didn’t know that Gary! Bollocks…
    So to solve the breakout problem I need to add a resize script or to make theimages smaller?
    As to the rss problem, no idea. I’ll have to check the forums…

    Also works in the crappy Windows Safari
