What?

===

Rack middleware that denies specified versions of IE.
Use the default template, a custom template or redirect users to another location.

Why?

===

Because progressive enhancement only goes so far.

How?

===

Install:

[sudo] gem install rack-denyie

Use:

require 'rack-denyie'

With default options: (Allows IE 7 or higher and displays the default template)

use Rack::DenyIE

With custom template and modified minimum version:

use Rack::DenyIE, { :min_version => 8, # Allow IE 8 and higher :template => "/full/path/to/your/template.html" # Custom HTML template }

With redirection set:

use Rack::DenyIE, { :redirect_url => "http://browsehappy.com/" }

With all options:

use Rack::DenyIE, { :min_version => 6, # Minimum Version :: Allows IE 6 and higher :template => '/full/path/to/your/template.erb', # Custom template :: ERB or HTML :headline => 'Sorry, old browser alert!', # Replaces "Your version of Internet Explorer is not supported." :site_name => "My Website" # Site Name :: Replaces the default "this site" with your site name. }

Any key/value you pass in will be available to your ERB template.

use Rack::DenyIE, { :my_key => "my value" }

<%= @my_key %> #=> "my value"
