andrewtaylor, that is not

andrewtaylor, that is not the question...

have a look here at w3schools for navigator DOM objects

I generally do an indexOf(navigator.userAgent,"some string"); to check for platform, browser etc. it might help if you first assign somevariable = navigator.userAgent;

In Windows Firefox the UA is Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14

Just had a look at your site

Just had a look at your site properly, instead of using browser sniffing why don't you ditch the flash on the front page and make something that does the same thing in dhtml?

First of all, why are you

First of all, why are you hosting on windows. ewwwww!

Secondly, that flash image thing that changes colours could be done in dhtml.

Thirdly, i would say use browser sniffing only as a last resort.

I've just looked at it on my mac and the menu expands to half way down the .swf file, could you not put the menu and swf file in separate containers then use z-index so that the extended menu actually flows over the .swf file? If you could post the code for the menu and the container for the .swf file it would be a lot easier to help you.

If it were me, i would ditch the flash and build a new menu but that's just me.
