Question

I’m using function to detect my website visitors browser type but later i found there many visits comes with undetectable browsers so i might needs to do some update to my browsers user agent list.

this is my list of browsers with browser name as array key and user agent as value.

$browsers = array(
                'Opera' => 'Opera',
                'Mozilla Firefox'=> '(Firebird)|(Firefox)',
                'Galeon' => 'Galeon',
                'Mozilla'=>'Gecko',
                'MyIE'=>'MyIE',
                'Lynx' => 'Lynx',
                'Netscape' => '(Mozilla/4\.75)|(Netscape6)|(Mozilla/4\.08)|(Mozilla/4\.5)|(Mozilla/4\.6)|(Mozilla/4\.79)',
                'Konqueror'=>'Konqueror',
                'SearchBot' => '(nuhk)|(Googlebot)|(Yammybot)|(Openbot)|(Slurp/cat)|(msnbot)|(ia_archiver)',
                'Internet Explorer 8' => '(MSIE 8\.[0-9]+)',
                'Internet Explorer 7' => '(MSIE 7\.[0-9]+)',
                'Internet Explorer 6' => '(MSIE 6\.[0-9]+)',
                'Internet Explorer 5' => '(MSIE 5\.[0-9]+)',
                'Internet Explorer 4' => '(MSIE 4\.[0-9]+)',
);

my question is where to get more browsers name / user agent !
for example for safari,navigator,mosaic,lynx,amaya,omniweb,avant,camino ..etc.

Don’t reinvent the wheel, use php’s get_browser function.
