Analog will convert user agent strings to browsers based on the agent string (and some internal aliases). The easiest way to do this is to 'create' an AOL browser agent string using aliases so that Analog will summarize it properly. Something like this will probably do what you need (untested): BROWALIAS REGEXP:"Mozilla/\d+\.\d+ \(compatible; ([^;]+); AOL (\d+\.\d+); ([^\)]+)\)" "AOL/$2 ($1; $3)" This should make the browsers into AOL/#.# allowing you to see them in the Browser Summary like other top-level browsers, preserve the 'MSIE 5.01' or whatever when looking at the Browser Report and preserver the platform for the Operating System report. -- Jeremy Wadsack Wadsack-Allen Digital Group +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | This is the analog-help mailing list.
