Bug description: get_browser() does not correct parse browscap.ini
hello,
i tried different browser with get_browsers, and had a lot of trouble.
for me, it seems that get_browser() does not recognize the question mark
'?' as joker sign if there is no asterisk '*'.
testet browsers (on a win2000):
ie 5 ok
mozilla 1.x, netscape 6/7, opera 6.2/7b not work
sample script:
$ua = "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; ?; Windows NT 5.0; ??-??; rv:1.1)
Gecko/????????";
print "<b>user_agent exact as written in browscap.ini:</b> [$ua]<br
/>";
fPrintBrowser( get_browser($ua) ) ;
$ua= $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"];
print "<b>user_agent as it browser sends:</b> [$ua]<br />";
fPrintBrowser( get_browser($ua) ) ;
function fPrintBrowser($browser) {
print "<b>pattern: </b>" . $browser->browser_name_pattern ."<br
/>";
print "<b>browser: </b>" . $browser->browser ."<br />";
}
sample output:
user_agent exact as written in browscap.ini: [Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; ?;
Windows NT 5.0; ??-??; rv:1.1) Gecko/????????]
pattern: Mozilla/5\.0 (Windows; .; Windows NT 5\.0; ..-..; rv:1\.1)
Gecko/........
browser: Mozilla
user_agent as it browser sends: [Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT
5.0; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020826]
pattern: .*
browser: Default
browscap.ini from http://www.garykeith.com/ (November 13, 2002):
entry (line 5522) don't work:
[Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; ?; Windows NT 5.0; ??-??; rv:1.1) Gecko/????????]
modified entry which works (asterisk at the end):
[Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; ?; Windows NT 5.0; ??-??; rv:1.1) Gecko/????????*]
thanks!
