Erm, the user notes are also worth reading :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-06 17:57:39] [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK, this is not included in one single page. You need to dig some :) See the manual page: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-browser.php | In order for this to work, your browscap | configuration file setting must point to the | correct location of the browscap.ini file. See that browscap is actually a link to the configuration section, where you can find again what setting to alter (name: browscap). Read on: | For more information (including locations from | which you may obtain a browscap.ini file), | check the PHP FAQ at http://www.php.net/FAQ.php. OK, I have checked it for you and found: http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.obtaining.php#AEN63982 Visit this page and read the FAQ entry. It is worth to read on using our links :)) There are some PHP distributions with included browscap.ini, and as you can see in php.ini, it is included with IIS/PWS. Currently the browscap.ini is not in the download... But we provided a link where you can get it :) Goba ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-06 17:43:15] [EMAIL PROTECTED] As far as i can see, there is no documentation for getting the browscap.ini to work on a win98 running apache. As i was looking at the documentation, i also saw a general lack of documentation on the browscap.ini file on more then one platform. when looking up the get_browser, it was not clear that a file had to be downloaded in addition to the php download and it was not clear that the file had to be configured and installed on the system running php. This is not a big problem, but while i was trying to get help on installing my browscap.ini file i found none. I cant get get_browser to work because i cant figure out how to install the browscap.ini file. Is it possible? If it its not possible it would have been nice to know.
