Q
|
Can BrowserHawk be used to determine the browser type and operating system from the user agent data that is in a format stored in a log file (as opposed to determining this for the current visitor)? In other words, can I pass "Mozilla/4.0+(compatible;+MSIE+5.5;+Windows+98)" to it and find out that this was browser type MSIE 5.5 and OS type Windows 98 -- and do the same for all browser/OS types?

Yes. You can do exactly this using the Initialize method of BrowserHawk. Just be sure to replace the "+" characters with spaces before calling this method.
See http://www.cyscape.com/docs/showhelp.asp?topic=initialize_method for more information.
