Eric's Dynamically-Generated WWW Pages

Unlike many Web pages, mine do not look funny on browsers other than Netscape. This is because my scripts determine which browser you're using and present only those HTML tags understood by it. In fact, my scripts even differentiate between releases of Netscape (if that is your browser) when determining your HTML capabilities.

So, although different browsers receive different versions of these pages, they still maintain appropriate formatting. A common example of this dynamic page generation is tables, which are presented as TABLEs for Netscape users and PRE-formatted text for everyone else.

The only problem with this approach is trying to maintain a mapping between browser name and HTML capabilities. Since I have easiest access to Mosaic and Netscape, I can do a fairly good job with them. With the other browsers, I'm sometimes forced to simplify things by assuming they have only basic HTML capabilities.
