You should always reply back to the list to maintain this thread for
future reference by others.
You asked if you need this class? I would say hell yeah, it's included in
the code:
include_once("client_detector_class.php");
Your include statement grabs the class code followed by the next line that
makes a call to that class:
$is = new sniffer();
I'm assuming Class sniffer is defined in client_detector_class.php.
Since you're not a programmer like you said, maybe downgrading to PHP4
would fix the problem.
Off topic, you're a sys admin just like me. Learning how to script will
increase your status as a Superstar Admin farther than you can ever
imagine. You don't have to be a programmer to learn PHP or perl or ksh or
whatever. :)
