chrisschuld /projects/browser-php-detecting-a-u

thanks....

it doesnt work, i am on ie and it shows mozilla..

you could also use something like this:

<pre><?php
echo ( browser_detection( 'number' ) .'<br>'.
browser_detection( 'browser' ) .'<br>'.
browser_detection( 'os' ) .'<br>'.
browser_detection( 'os_number' ) );
?>

outputs (browser version, browser, os, os number):
y.4
moz
nt
4.y ( ( browser_detection( 'browser' ) == 'ie' )
&&
( browser_detection( 'number' ) >= 4 ) )
{
echo 'it is internet explorer ' .
browser_detection( 'number' );
// or anything else you want to happen of course
}
?>
</pre>

agreed, it is easy! however, getting a more granular answer is the not-so-easy part. here is my solution to browser detection in php if you are interested: chrisschuld /projects/browser-php-detecting-a-u

thanks... you made my day... :)

browscap seems to be more accurate as compared to user_agent. I found a class here on this site which seems promising to me.

Using the user agent to detect browser always gives confusing results - everyone on this thread is complaining that the user agent says "Mozilla" because EVERY user agent string says Mozilla. Use php's get_browser or modify the UA string a lot...
