That example is _very_ simple. This should be like (untested):

<script language=3D"JavaScript1.2" type=3D"text/javascript">
<!--
    if ((navigator.appName =3D=3D "Konqueror" && navigator.appVersion.cha=
rAt(0) >=3D 5) ||=20
       (navigator.appName =3D=3D "Netscape" && navigator.appVersion.charA=
t(0) >=3D 4) ||=20
       (navigator.appName =3D=3D "Microsoft Internet Explorer" && navigat=
or.appVersion.charAt(0) >=3D 4) ||=20
       (navigator.appName =3D=3D "Opera" && navigator.appVersion.charAt(0=
) >=3D 4) ||=20
       (navigator.appName =3D=3D "WebTV Plus Receiver" && navigator.appVe=
rsion.charAt(0) >=3D 3)) {
          document.write("<FORM ACTION=3D\"doStuff\" METHOD=3D\"POST\" on=
Submit=3D\"delConfirm()\">");
    }
    else { document.write("<FORM ACTION=3D\"doStuffViaConfirm\" METHOD=3D=
\"POST\" "); }
//-->
</script>

This example will work if JS is turned on.=20
There is "doStuff" which deletes in anyway. There are "doStuffViaConfirm"=
 which do via HTML-based=20
confirm. Then you just determine if user want JS or not. Actually you sho=
uld write the <FORM> tag
with "doStuffViaConfirm" and then if user wants JS ("right" browser for y=
our purposes) and JS is=20
turned on in preferenses -- just delete this form and rewrite it again wi=
th JavaScript stuff. In other
word -- that what I call "JavaScript masturbations". In other hand, if yo=
u like to make disaster to users,
who does not like or use JS -- just do this example above. ;-)

P.S. Do You still love JavaScr...
Segmentation fault. Core dumped

What's this script do?
    unzip ; touch ; finger ; mount ; gasp ; yes ; umount ; sleep
