total noob question

I want to make a script that will refresh the page when someone clicks anywhere on the page, except for hyperlinks (which, we know what they do) but ONLY for IE7

document.onclick=function(){
var browserName=navigator.appName;
var browserVer=parseInt(navigator.appVersion);
if (browserName=="Microsoft Internet Explorer" && browserVer==7)
history.go(0);
}

this doesnt work. My lack of understanding of js is probably to blame here. I think the problem with this script is that this function is not loaded on startup of the page? Total noob here. I dunno, any ideas?

Best thing is to use conditional comments.

<--![if IE 7]><script type="text/javascript" src="ie7refresh.js"></script><![endif]-->

Then in ie7refresh.js:

window.attachEvent('onload', refresh);
function refresh() {
  document.body.onclick = function() {
    if (window.event.target.nodeName == 'A') return;
    else window.location.reload(true);
  }
}

That will make it reload from the server each time. If reloading from the cache is OK, use window.location.reload() instead of the above with "true" as a parameter.
