I've been tinkering around with Analog 5.24
a bit to weed out a few more browsers in my
local reports (OmniWeb, MSIE mods, additional
Gecko-based projects, etc.) and have now moved
on to test BROWALIAS directives to consolidate
the Browser Report as well as the summary.
In passing the following BROWALIAS commands to
Analog for Netscape 6.x browsers, I find that
application of the commands will lead to a
sizeable difference in the summary reporting
for Netscape 6.x -- using the following list
of commands lowers Analog's count for Netscape
6.x and raises the count for Mozilla (NN6.x
drops 834 -> 734, Mozilla rises 2852 -> 2952).
It's all very rough at present, as I'm using
Analog-style matching and not regexp matching,
and have yet to fully consolidate matches, but
I'm struck that the count differs so much.
Am I mistaken in keying off "Netscape6/" as
the identified for Netscape 6.x? I am still in
the process of parsing the source to Analog to
determine how the program sorts things out
internally without the aide of BROWALIAS ...
can anyone suggest whether I'm at fault or
whether Analog is over-reporting incidence of
Netscape 6.x? I'm a bit stumped at present.
