Eric,
This is really useful, if a little depressing! Thanks.
I am very new to writing html, so forgive me if this is very basic,
but what is 'the NetMeeting ActiveX control'?
What is 'the SDK'?
And most important, for now, where can I find the code to write a
browser detection page?
Many thanks,
Ben
