ohdang888 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I know there is a way to see what browser program they are using. And if they are using firefox, is there anyway to detect certain add-ons or toolbars that firefox has??????? Such as the weatherbug thing, or ad-block plus, or anything else..... Thanks!

cooldude832 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 the $_SERVER variable is your best source of info, but its limited to what they send you http://us2.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/97562-detect-browser-addons/#findComment-499178 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildteen88 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 The $_SERVER variable will only allow you to retrieve the user agent (the web browser name and version/Operating system and version), eg: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080201 Firefox/2.0.0.12 You wont be able to detect what add-ons a user has installed. You will most probably have to use javascript for that, there might be some API which you can use.
