HTTP::BrowserDetect 0.99

HTTP::BrowserDetect is a Perl module to determine the Web browser, version, and platform from an HTTP user agent string.

SYNOPSIS

use HTTP::BrowserDetect;

my $browser = new HTTP::BrowserDetect($user_agent_string);

# Detect operating system
if ($browser->windows) {
if ($browser->winnt) ...
if ($brorwser->win95) ...
}
print $browser->mac;

# Detect browser vendor and version
print $browser->netscape;
print $browser->ie;
if (browser->major(4)) {
if ($browser->minor() > .5) {
...
}
}
if ($browser->version() > 4) {
...;
}

# Process a different user agent string
$browser->user_agent($another_user_agent_string);

The HTTP::BrowserDetect object does a number of tests on an HTTP user agent string. The results of these tests are available via methods of the object.
