Showing a warning message to users using IE

[Jasen]

How can I have my shop show a pop up message, etc to users who are using Internet Explorer since my site's theme has compatibility problems with it?

 

Thanks

IMO, fixing the compatibility problem would be better, but if you must show an alert, download this module. Disclosure: module is built by me. Install, go to its configuration, select "Header of pages" from "Block position" dropdown and add the following into "Block body" field (changing the message appropriately), save:

 

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
	if(window.location == baseDir && $.browser.msie) {
		alert('Insert your message here');
	}
});
</script>

 

Now when you visit home page in IE, and home page only, an alert will show up.
