Welcome Safari User!
Hehe, I decided that I need to give Safari a little plug on my site. So I made a "Welcome Safari user" tag that is there when the user is using safari. If you have a mac and aren't using safari, it gives you a link to go download it. And if you don't have a mac or aren't running macos you get a "Get a Mac" with a link to www.apple.com! Hehe. The code is below. It is done with PHP.
Code:
<?php
if (strstr($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"], "Macintosh") || strstr($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"], "Mac_PowerPC")){
// OK, were on a mac
// Are we using safari?
if (strstr($_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"], "Apple")) {
// Yep!
echo "<img src=images/safari.jpg>";
} else {
// nope
echo "<a href=http://www.apple.com/safari/><img src=images/getsafari.jpg border=0></a>";
}
} else {
// Nope, On a PC
echo "<a href=http://www.apple.com/><H3>Get a mac.</H3></a>";
}
?>
Check out the finished product at my site:

Re: Welcome Safari User!
Sweet, I was saying the Apple website should say, have you tried Safari? if you log on with a Mac and another Browser...

Dude, that's way cool. I tried to copy and paste the code to my blog (after uploading the safari.jpg, of course, and pointing to it properly), but it won't display the graphic. What have I done wrong? I'm using Movable Type. Thanks. Way cool.

Re: Welcome Safari User!
Well, it is php right? If so, I don't see the problem...You might have a permissions problem. Who does your web hosting?
