Yes, you'll have to parse it out of the CGI.HTTP_USER_AGENT variable...i.e.,


HTTP_USER_AGENT=Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)

It's in there for each hit.  Try using 

<CFIF FindNoCase("Windows", #CGI.HTTP_USER_AGENT#)>
  <CFSET platform = "windows">
<CFELSEIF FindNoCase("Linux", #CGI.HTTP_USER_AGENT#)>
  <CFSET platform = "linux">
<etc.../>

Subject: can CF figure out user platform??


Hi,

I have a problem with some of my pages 'font sizes' appearing differently 
across platforms. For example a 'font size' of 1 on a windows machine is 
unreadable on a linux machine. I was thinking if when this problem page is 
loaded it could figure out what platform the user has and I can dynamically 
specify the font size like that. Is there any function or tag that you know 
of that can find out this info?

thanks

Sal
