Browser Update

This is a little javascript that detects the user's browser and shows a warning message if the browser is too old.

If the user clicks the notification bar he is redirected to Google's "WhatBrowser" Page (no ads).

This is based on the www.browser-update.org script. See LICENSE file for more information.

    // The default current browser versions. Change only if plugin is out of date.
    vsakt: { i: 12, f: 50, o: 42, s: 10, n: 20, c: 55, y: 16.9, v: 1.6 }
    
    vs: { i: 10, f: -4, o: -4, s: -2, c: -4 },  // Specifies browser versions to notify. Negative numbers specify how much versions behind current version to notify.
 
                                   // f:22 ---> Firefox <= 22
                                   // c:-5 ---> Chrome <= 35 if current Chrome version is 40.
    reminder: 24,                  // after how many hours should the message reappear
                                   // 0 = show all the time
    reminderClosed: 150,           // if the user explicitly closes message it reappears after x hours
    onshow: function(infos){},     // callback functions after notification has appeared / was clicked / closed
    onclick: function(infos){},
    onclose: function(infos){},

    l: false,                       // set a fixed language for the message, e.g. "en". This overrides the default detection.
    test: true,                    // true = always show the bar (for testing)
    text: "",                       // custom notification text (html)
                                    // Placeholders {brow_name} will be replaced with the browser name, {up_but} with contents of the update link tag and {ignore_but} with contents for the ignore link.
                                    // Example: Your browser, {brow_name}, is too old: <a{up_but}>update</a> or <a{ignore_but}>ignore</a>.
    text_xx: "",                    // custom notification text for language "xx"
                                    // e.g. text_de for german and text_it for italian
    newwindow: true,                // open link in new window/tab
    url: null,                      // the url to go to after clicking the notification
    noclose:false,                  // Do not show the "ignore" button to close the notification
    nomessage: false,               // Do not show a message if the browser is out of date, just call the onshow callback function
};
