It's not hard to understand. The web server doesn't have access to your system. It guesses that information based on the HTTP headers that were sent by the browser. There is no standard for how the browser identification line is formatted, nor indeed does the standard require one be present at all. Some browsers are too clever, some intentionally lie, some don't include it. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
