Is there a js file somewhere that would allow me to just insert the following into my pages:
<!--[if lte IE 6]><!--> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.domain.com/ie6.js";></script> <!--<![endif]--> It would then pop up a warning to the user (but only once per session) that their browser was out of date, and give them links to more modern browsers - like what Google does, but in a way that would allow me to just insert that code and not have to worry about it. Also I think there would be value in having the same warning shown to users across multiple sites - might help to ram the message home a bit stronger :) Like the OP I too want to have something other than just a broken page, but considering the value that IE 6 users bring to my site I am not prepared to spend more than a few minutes to cater for them.
