Hey, I just thought that I wanted to let you know that when I visited the 
www.gap.com website, it would halt your entrance letting you know that you 
needed to use a browser that they supported.  Knowing that Konqueror was more 
than capable of browsing their site (set identification to something else) I 
wrote them and e-mail explaining to them that there was an important 
webbrowser out there called Konqueror that spawned the technology that the 
popular safari browser uses.  They responded that they would take a look into 
what they could do, And now, as far as I can tell from their javascripts, 
they have added Konqueror as a recognized webbrowser.  I wanted to post this 
to a newsgroup to show that making this request on companies can work.  I 
wasn't sure however which to post it to.  I wanted to make sure that plenty 
of people could maybe thank them for taking the time.  I know it's somewhat 
menial considering it's just gap.com, but still, my girlfriend is happier now 
that she can just go there with no hassles.

Code that they put in:
objClient.isKonq = isF;
var kqPos = inAgt('konqueror');
if (kqPos !=-1) {
	objClient.isKonq  = isT;
	intMinor = parseFloat(agt.substring(kqPos+10,inAgt(';',kqPos)));
	intMajor = parseInt(intMinor);
}                                 

objClient.isSafari = ((inAgt('safari')!=-1)&&(inAgt('mac')!=-1))?isT:isF;
objClient.isKhtml  = (objClient.isSafari || objClient.isKonq);
