Description: jReject provides a simple, robjust, light-weight way to display rejections based on a the browser, specific browser version, specific platforms, or rendering engine. Provides full customization of the popup. Uses no CSS file (by default), and can easily be used on page load or during a specific page event. Also provides a flexible way to beautifully and cleanly display custom browser alternatives in the popup.
Depends On:
jQuery 1.3+
jQuery Browser Plugin (Included By Default)
If you are a developer familiar with using jQuery, continue with the documentation below...
The object is called "reject", and can be invoked once the document is ready ($.reject() or jQuery.reject()). The first parameter contains all the options and configurations for the plugin.
Here are the default options for the first parameter of the reject object. You only need to specify those which you wish to override.
options = {
reject : { // Rejection flags for specific browsers
all: false, // Covers Everything (Nothing blocked)
msie5: true,msie6: true // Covers MSIE 5-6 (Blocked by default)
/*
Possibilities are endless...
msie: false,msie5: true,msie6: true,msie7: false,msie8: false, // MSIE Flags (Global, 5-8)
firefox: false,firefox1: false,firefox2: false,firefox3: false, // Firefox Flags (Global, 1-3)
konqueror: false,konqueror1: false,konqueror2: false,konqueror3: false, // Konqueror Flags (Global, 1-3)
chrome: false,chrome1: false,chrome2: false,chrome3: false,chrome4: false, // Chrome Flags (Global, 1-4)
safari: false,safari2: false,safari3: false,safari4: false, // Safari Flags (Global, 1-4)
opera: false,opera7: false,opera8: false,opera9: false,opera10: false, // Opera Flags (Global, 7-10)
gecko: false,webkit: false,trident: false,khtml: false,presto: false, // Rendering Engines (Gecko, Webkit, Trident, KHTML, Presto)
win: false,mac: false,linux : false,solaris : false,iphone: false, // Operating Systems (Win, Mac, Linux, Solaris, iPhone)
unknown: false // Unknown covers everything else

Called before rejection is determined.
Called after rejection window has been created, for browsers that matched the rejection settings.
Called if the browser does NOT meet the rejection requirements
Called after close button is clicked, but before popup is actually closed.
Called after rejection popup is closed
If nothing happened when you ran this demo, that is because you are not using IE6!. By default (no settings specified) the reject function only rejects IE5 and IE6.
$('#demo1').click(function() {
$.reject(); // Default Settings
return false;
});
In this example pretty much every browser should be rejected.
$('#demo2').click(function() {
$.reject({
reject: {
safari: true, // Apple Safari
chrome: true, // Google Chrome
firefox: true, // Mozilla Firefox
msie: true, // Microsoft Internet Explorer
opera: true, // Opera
konqueror: true, // Konqueror (Linux)
unknown: true // Everything else
}
}); // Customized Browsers
return false;
});
In this demo we use customized text in the popup window. This demo uses the following properties:
header, paragraph1, paragraph2, closeMessage
See Also closeLink
$('#demo3').click(function() {
$.reject({
reject: { all: true }, // Reject all renderers for demo
header: 'Your browser is not supported here', // Header Text
paragraph1: 'You are currently using an unsupported browser', // Paragraph 1
paragraph2: 'Please install one of the many optional browsers below to proceed', // Paragraph 2
closeMessage: 'Close this window at your own demise!' // Message below close window link
}); // Customized Text
return false;
});
Using the display option, you can define which browsers to suggest, and the order in which to suggest them.
GCF is supported, but only displayed for IE users by default.
Default: ['firefox','chrome','msie','safari','opera','gcf']
$('#demo4').click(function() {
$.reject({
reject: { all: true }, // Reject all renderers for demo
display: ['firefox','chrome','opera'] // Displays only firefox, chrome, and opera
});
return false;
});
You can even add a customized browser to the list, and display it in any order you want.
Note: To add your own icon, you need to create a 'browser_{browserName}.gif' file and place it in your imagePath directory with the other images.

$('#demo5').click(function() {
$.reject({
reject: { all: true }, // Reject all renderers for demo
display: ['flock','safari','opera'], // Displays only custom "Flock" browser, safari and opera.
browserInfo: {
flock: { // Specifies browser name and image name (browser_flock.gif)
text: 'Flock 2+', // Text Link
url: 'http://flock.com/' // URL To link to
}
}
});
return false;
});
By using the closeCookie option, you can make the window only appear once per session.
After it pops up the first time, this demo will not popup again until next browser session.
Note: This requires the ability to close the window. If close is false the cookie will never be set.
$('#demo6').click(function() {
$.reject({
reject: { all: true }, // Reject all renderers for demo
closeCookie: true // Set cookie to remmember close for this session
});
return false;
});
The close option allows you to hide the closeLink or closeMessage elements from displaying.
This prevents the user from closing the window. If you use this on a onLoad event, the user will never be able to use your site.
Note: Testing this demo will require you to refresh the page to close out the popup window.
$('#demo7').click(function() {
$.reject({
reject: { all: true }, // Reject all renderers for demo
close: false, // Prevent closing of window
paragraph1: 'You will not be able to close this window', // Warning about closing
paragraph2: 'To exit, you must refresh the page' // Display refresh link
});
return false;
});
