Web Browser Detection

Richard Eng
Does Seaside have a facility for web browser detection? I just wanted to
double-check before I turn to a third-party JavaScript solution.

In general, what are Seasiders' recommendation regarding web browser
detection?

Thanks,
Richard

RE: Web Browser Detection

Boris Popov, DeepCove Labs (SNN)
You want recommendations, eh? 'Don't do it" is surely going to be the
most popular one ;) If you insist, however, you should just use
something like MooTools on client-side, because it detects the browser
by testing its features instead of looking at the user-agent field and
other stuff like that. You'd need to let your backend know, of course,
but that was covered recently when someone asked about screen size
and/or resolution detection.
