Detect IE7

I've searched online but everything I find is either 3 years old or does way more than I need it to. I'm having an image issue with IE7 and I don't want to serve it if someone is using IE7.

How would I do this:

If Browser IE7
~Do Nothing
Else
~Serve Image
Endif

Thanks for any help.

 

surely you could do a pattern match against $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']
IE6 (on my system): Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; InfoPath.2)
FF2 (on my system): Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4

i only imagine that in IE7 it would be MSIE 7.0, however i could be wrong but i do not have IE7 so i cannot be 100% sure.

 

Thanks ansi that's part of the problem: What do you look for to know it's IE7?

 

i really couldn't tell you being as i don't have it yet. though if i may ask, what is your reason for hiding an image if it is viewed in Internet Explorer 7?

wish i could be of more assistance

 

I want to hide it because of the way the site is set up (www.dennisdornon.com) one image is received if it's IE 6 and below and another if it's firefox because I'm using a transparent png. the best way to see what I'm talking about is to go to http://www.dennisdornon.com/orlando-chrysler.html in IE and Firefox and you'll see the two different images.

IE 7 shows both images overlapping each other.

Exactly what you need. Scroll down in the article for version information.

 

That will definitely work. You can also do it with css stylesheets if it is more appropriate for your situation.

<!--[if IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" ............. />
<![endif]-->
