Automatically populate text box with browser info...

Oct 10th, 2006

I want some information about a browser, to be inserted automatically into a text box when a page loads. However quite how to do this im not sure.

I have made the form and have a JavaScript which does the job, but I want to know how to get the JavaScript to display the information in the text field.

Here is the JavaScript:

<!-- Begin
var xy = navigator.appVersion;
xz = xy.substring(0,4);
document.write("<center><table border=1 cellpadding=0><tr><td>");
document.write("<center><b>", navigator.appName,"</b>");
document.write("</td></tr><tr><td>");
document.write("<center><table border=0 cellpadding=0><tr>");
document.write("<td>Code Name: </td><td><center>");
document.write("<b>", navigator.appCodeName,"</td></tr>");
document.write("<tr><td>Version: </td><td><center>");
document.write("<b>",xz,"</td></tr>");
document.write("<tr><td>Java enabled: </td><td><center><b>");
if (navigator.javaEnabled()) document.write("sure is!</td></tr>");
else document.write("<font color=red>**NO**</font></td></tr>")
document.write("<tr><td>Screen Resolution too high: </td><td><center>");
document.write("<b><font color=red>",screen.width," x ",screen.height,"</font></td></tr>");
document.write("</table></tr></td></table></center>");
// End -->

document.write("<center><table border=0 cellpadding=0><tr>");

document.write("<b><font color=red>",screen.width," x ",screen.height,"</font></td></tr>");
document.write("</table></tr></td></table></center>");
// End -->

And heres the basic form:

<form method="POST" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" onSubmit="location.href='_derived/nortbots.htm';return false;" webbot-onSubmit>
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" u-file="_private/form_results.csv" s-format="TEXT/CSV" s-label-fields="TRUE" startspan --><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><!--webbot bot="SaveResults" endspan i-checksum="43374" --><p>
<textarea rows="5" name="S1" cols="33">I WANT THE SCRIPT TO BE DISPLAYED HERE onLoad</textarea></p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>

I've tried a few things with no success. I think the script may need changing to make this work. Anyone got any ideas?

Cheers,
