Detect Browser - switch to iframe or url as page loads

[dj]

Hi,

Anyone have a snippet of code that will guide me as follows;

I want to use an iframe but if the browser does not support iframes I
want to simply replace the iframe HTML code with the URL which will be
in the iframe.

I'll probably detect the browser to make the switch.

I'm a beginner in javascript so any help is appreciated.

regards
DJ

want to simply replace the iframe HTML code with the URL which will be
in the iframe.

No scripting necessary, HTML can do that:

<iframe src="something.html"><a href="something.html">Something</a></iframe>

If a browsers doesn't know the iframe tag, it must ignore it. That
makes the anchor tag visible. If it knows the iframe tag, it knows to
ignore the content too.
