Hello,
As an information, I was performing some tries with IE11 and web2py
applications, and a "funny" fact was appearing while using *
gluon.contrib.user_agent_parser *to detect the browser.
I'm used to use Chrome so here are the results of a *request.user_agent()*
depending
on the browser used:
- *Chrome:*
- <Storage {'os': <Storage {'version': 'NT 6.1', 'name': 'Windows'}>,
'is_tablet': False, 'is_mobile': False, 'browser': <Storage {'version':
'29.0.1547.62', 'name': 'Chrome'}>}>
- *IE11:*
- <Storage {'os': <Storage {'version': 'NT 6.1', 'name': 'Windows'}>,
'is_tablet': False, 'is_mobile': False}>
So, as you can see, 'browser' is not existing anymore with IE11 (they have
removed this value from User Agent to be considered as any other browser).
I don't know if it's possible to do an update of this very useful module to
take care of this case ?
Else, I would like to warn you to be careful with that point, because if
you were using it to detect the browser (as I did), you could get an error
each time you're trying to get the information (for example with: *
detect(request.env.http_user_agent)['browser']* which will return a
KeyError Exception).
Hope it will help,
Baptiste
