Re: Fav User Agent Strings

Re: Fav User Agent Strings Hmmm... IE has a developers menu option that I have been just ignoring, maybe I'll have to take a look at it to see what's there.I don't think the dividing line between HTML5 or Flash is that cleanly defined, when I was running IE8, which is HTML4, while running

Re: Fav User Agent Strings

Re: Fav User Agent Strings I no longer have Flash installed because the bad vastly outweighs the good in my book. Youtube is now HTML5 so there is no compelling need for me to keep it around. I now simply avoid the BBC content that demands Flash; they only insist on Flash at all for DRM

Re: Fav User Agent Strings

Re: Fav User Agent Strings I'm not sure yet because I haven't gotten up enough ambition to look into it, but for IE, I suspect it's one or more system registry entries. URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=241311#p241311

Re: Fav User Agent Strings Maybe I'm dense, but, is there a point to this?All a user agent string does is tell the web servers that host the web site you are visiting the configuration of your web browsing platform, just in case it matters to the web site's code.Yawn! URL: http
