rack-noie is the coolest rack middleware ever created. And it is so because it does everyone a favor: it shows the way out of your website to poor souls out there using Internet Explorer 6.
Add to your Gemfile
gem "rack-noie", :require => "noie"
Add to your config/application.rb
config.middleware.use Rack::NoIE
By default, this will redirect IE6 (and below) to MS's upgrade site
For an updated slant (only let IE9 in):
config.middleware.use Rack::NoIE, {:redirect => "http://ie8nomore.com/",
:minimum => 9}
config.middleware.use Rack::NoIE, {:redirect => "/why-i-dont-support-ie.html",
:minimum => 29}
use Rack::NoIE, :redirect => '/noieplease.html'
the above will redirect to a page noieplease.html in your website. You can redirect to a URL as well, like so
use Rack::NoIE, :redirect => 'http://slashdot.org'
or let the default kick in
I'm a nice guy. I'm so nice that the default URL points to Microsoft's IE8 upgrade page.
MIT, as usual.
