can I hide a script from IE6?

Thanks to Koko5 for helping me out with my jquery for my drop down menu. Unfortunately, I now have a dropdown which works fine on everything except IE6. I need to figure out if I have to recode the drop-down, or try to hide the script from IE6. The problem is, the nav items in the dropdown in IE6 blink whenever they are hovered over. They are blinking because the jquery script is causing the background-image to change in a nearby div. I am using the son of suckerfish style for the dropdown menu. Either I need to try to disable the script for IE6 or re-do the nav...take a look at what I'm talking about, and if any of you have IE6 you'll see what I mean...

You can detect the browser name and version in javascript http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_browser.asp

 

you can test if the user is using IE6 or not by this code:

isIE6 = /msie|MSIE 6/.test(navigator.userAgent);
	if (!(isIE6)) {
// The code you want to hide from IE6
	
	}

Never read the userAgent sting.

if( typeof XMLHttpRequest === 'undefined' )
{
 // it's IE6 or lower
 // (or something else that won't support your code
}
