HTTP_USER_AGENT : String ReReplace (UNFINISHED)
<------------------------------------>
My idea is to extract each instance before ";" so we can auto detect operating
systems, browser versions, and future devices. This data can be placed in a
table, xml file, etc. Thus, it can be logged, massaged for css/html5,
j-Queried, etc.
I'm not sure if this is the best way to do this.
But it is worth a spin on some ideas. Thanks and CF STILL ROCKS.
<------------------------------------>
<!--- REPLACE THE FIRST '(' WITH NOTHING '', CREATING A SPACE --->
<cfset TheString = REReplace(HTTP_USER_AGENT, '\(', '', 'ALL') />
<!-- TheString: #TheString#<br /><br /> -->
<!--- REPLACE THE FIRST ')' WITH NOTHING '', CREATING A SPACE --->
<cfset TheString2 = REReplace(TheString, '\)', '', 'ALL') />
<!-- TheString2: #TheString2#<br /><br /> -->
<!--- REPLACE THE SPACES ' ' WITH ';', CREATING A ";" SPACER --->
<cfset TheString3 = replace(TheString2, ' ',';', 'ALL') />
<!-- TheString3: #TheString3#<br /><br /> -->
<!--- FOUND PROBLEM WITH "Windows;NT;5.1;;" (REPLACE THE ";;" NO PUN INTENDED!)
--->
<cfset TheString4 = REReplace(TheString3, '\;;', ';', 'ALL') />
<!-- TheString4: #TheString4#<br /><br /> -->
WORKING OUTPUT:
Mozilla/5.0;Windows;NT;5.1;rv:2.0.1;Gecko/20100101;Firefox/4.0.1
