Re: browser detection

Check out the following : Browser Detection and Appropriate CSS Generation : ----------------------------------------------------- http://www.phpbuilder.com/columns/tim20000821.php3 phpSniff : ----------------------------------------------------- http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/phpsniff/ And as already stated, the predefined variable $HTTP_USER_AGENT is what makes all this happen. Predefined variables are good : http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.predefined.php That phpbuilder article will probably be of most use to you, it contains examples to do about anything with $HTTP_USER_AGENT. Also, check out the get_browser() function : http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-browser.php Although it takes a little work to get running :) Regards, Philip Olson On Tue, 25 Sep 2001, wm wrote: > hi all, > > anybody know the function for browser detection? > > what i want to do is set a variable $spacerheight to a value dependent > upon whether the user is on a mac or a pc. > > then i can say height=<? echo "$spacerheight"; ?> in the html. > > i tried using javascript a few diff ways with this and it didn't work. > > so, if anybody knows that function or if there is another way, please > let > me know. > > thanks. > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net >
