Question

I have the following code implimented in my system:

$browser = get_browser(null, true);
#print_r($browser);

foreach ($browser AS $B => $V)
{
echo $B.":". $V."<br>";
}

Which returns the following:

browser_name_regex:�^.*$�
browser_name_pattern:*
browser:Default Browser
version:0
majorver:0
minorver:0
platform:unknown
alpha:
beta:
win16:
win32:
win64:
frames:1
iframes:

javaapplets:
javascript:
activexcontrols:
isbanned:
ismobiledevice:
issyndicationreader:
crawler:
cssversion:0
supportscss:
aol:
aolversion:0

how do I reveal the browser_name_regex? and I do not think this is revealing the correct infroamtion.. because the browser i’m viewing this on is not my Default Browser
and i’m pretty sure i’m not using version 0 of chrome.

To get get_browser() work correctly you have to download the latest browsercap.ini file and update your local browsercap.ini file which is located at echo ini_get('browscap'); or check the PHPinfo page.
