Page submits twice when background = “#”

If you ever come across a situation where your page goes to the same action twice for no apparent reason then make sure that there’s no background=”#” anywhere in your page.

I found that if there’s background=”#” then the page tends to submit the same request twice!! Call it a bug in html… Not sure about that. But the code is as below:

<table background=”#”>

<tr>

<td>

This piece of code in your page will cause the request to be submitted twice!!

</td>

</tr>

</table>

Identify the browser used by the client

You may want to know the details of the browser used by the various visitors to your site. Lets see how the navigator object can be used to identify the browser details of the user. The navigator object has a property named ‘appName’ which will do the trick.The code below is all that is needed:

navigator.appName

For Ex.

function identifyBrowser()

{

alert(“You seem to be working on the “+navigator.appName+” browser”);

}

The navigator method has a few other properties like:

appCodeName

appVersion

language

mimeTypes[]

platform

plugins[]

userAgent
