I like the script, is so cool but haven't got a CLOSE option to the layer :(

I second that.

It should also be remembered if the user has clicked close (by cookies), so the 
box 
won't reappear.

BTW: this is a feature, not a defect.

I also prefer that. Thank you.

It will be a great resource, but remember the user's preference is not a good 
option. Ie6 users need to be annoyed to upgrade their browsers. Let's kill ie6.

Without a close option, the script is unusable for us. We want to encourage IE6 
users to update, but can't afford to prevent them from accessing our site. 
Doing so will alienate our valued customers and cost us money.

If somebody is intrested:
I added 3 features

1) If you want that there is a close button, open iewarning.js and set the 
variable "showCloseButton" to "true", if you want to hide it, set it to "false".

2) By default a sessioncookie gets set now that disables the iewarning. If you 
want that there is a cookie with an expire time of 365 days instead of the 
sessioncookie, set longHideCookie to "true", then the ie-user should not get 
the iewarning message again except the 365 days expire or he clears his cache.

3) I included a function that detects the browser language and changes the msg 
strings from english to the wished language. By default i included the german 
msg strings from the wiki, but you can include more if you just open the 
iewarning.js and look at the example code.
Important: use the unescape("string") function, if there are any special 
letters like ä,ö,ü,ß and so on in your message text.

The best thing is, that the implementation in you websites is as simple as 
before, you just might want to set one of the two variables i added at the top 
of the iewarning.js file.

I attached a .zip file with the modified version if anyone is intrested..
