Hi,
i would like to know whether there is any way of finding out the name of
the browser and the os from which a servlet is invoked.
the http header user agent returns a string in the form
Browser Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows NT)
Is there any way other than parsing the above string in order to get the
name of the browser ? and how do we get the name of the operating system
under which the above browser is running ? the length and contents of
the above string varies for different browsers and operating systems.
hence parsing for the os name does not seem to yield consistent
results.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Javed
