Q361 How can I change the effect of a link tag so that Netscape and Explorer go to different locations?

Try the following which goes to netscape.htm is Netscape Navigator is being used, explorer.htm if Microsoft Internet Explorer, and default.htm if the browser doesn't support JavaScript, or if JavaScript is disabled:

<A HREF="default.htm" onClick="if (navigator.appName == 'Netscape') this.href = 'netscape.htm'; else this.href = 'explorer.htm'">Go Somewhere</A>
