here is a sample use of the browser detector, it would load a browser specific stylesheet
for certain unsupported or improperly supported mac ie 5 css styles. The depth variable
is used so that the javascript library file can be used from anywhere in the website, you simply
insert the depth of the file like this,
...
Browser information Page
in the head of the web page after the js file is loaded.
Or if you are always referring your site to the root, you wouldn't need that
and could delete the depth variable and just use the absolute path to the root.
