I wasnt really sure where to post this as i dont actually know how its done. I have seen it done though. I basically want it so that my website is only viewable in selected browsers and if the viewer doesnt have that browser i want it to prompt them to downlaod it. Is this possible????

Firstly i would recommend not doing this, as you are isolating a large portion of your visitors.
But, if you wanted to do this, you could use conditional comments, not JS: CODE [i]<!--[if IE]> If the user is using Internet Explorer then this message will be displayed, this cound prompt them to download firefox etc <![endif]-->[/i] More information about Critical comments here http://craigmoran.co.uk/index.php?p=5 -------------------- |

Just to point something out. You are asking how to exclude visitors to your website in an accessibility and usability forum
