header() simply sends response headers - I.e adds/replaces server headers -
it has no effect on request headers sent by the client.

If, for some reason, you want to alter the user-agent you've received from
the client (for testing maybe?) you can do this:

echo $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']='Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT
5.1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)';
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
