JJ,
I don't know of an *easy* way, but this script (with regex's ) isn't too
bad; you can figure it out with a little bit of research.
/* begin script
ereg("^([[:alpha:]]+)/([[:digit:]\.]+)( .*)$", $HTTP_USER_AGENT, $match);
$Browser_Name=$match[1];
$Browser_Version=$match[2];
$Browser_Description=$match[3];
If(eregi("msie", $Browser_Description))
eregi("MSIE ([[:digit:]\.]+);, $Browser_Description, $match);
$Browser_Name="MSIE";
$Browser_Version = $match[1];
}
// end script
*/
So now, you have a script which gets the Name, Version and Description, and
also looks to specify MSIE as the browser. Read up on Regular Expressions,
and you can modify this for any browser/version combo.
