Conditional HTML comments will work for detecting IE9 or less.

 

 

<script>
  var x = navigator.userAgent;
  alert(' browser details ' + x);
</script>

navigator object has all details related to browser and platform details of clients machine.

navigator.userAgent gives browser related details.

How to restrict portal to IE only, display error message to user if Firefox

 

One way to acheive this is to customize your login page and add a script to detect the browser and act accordingly.

For customizing the Loginpage, you can find weblogs or pdfs on sdn or refer the thread :

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=135809&messageID=1519172 How to change the login page of EP ?

 

Once you have the logonpage.jsp file, Add the following lines to it in the script block where you find the js functions clearEntries() and setFocusToFirstField().

if(navigator.appName != 'Microsoft Internet Explorer')
{
window.location='http://www.google.co.in';
}

In place of the Google url, give the url of the page to which you want to redirect. Add these lines as the first lines in that script block.

Then build the par file and upload it to the server. Follow the instructions to change the login page in the authschemes.xml file.
