+Browser Identification + + +&Krishna.Tateneni; &Krishna.Tateneni.mail; + + + +2003-10-12 +3.2 + + +KDE +KControl +user agent +browser +identification + + + + + +Browser Identification + + + +Introduction + +When &konqueror; connects to a web site to retrieve information, +some basic identifying information is sent to the web site in the form +of a User Agent header. + +Because of minor differences in the way that different web +browsers function, web sites that rely too much on a single browser may +sometimes not display as intended when viewed using another +browser. Some web sites are smart enough to examine the contents of the +user agent header and incorporate this information in the +HTML code so that the content is displayed correctly +regardless of the browser used. + +However, you may find that some web sites refuse to function +correctly unless you are using a browser recognized as +proper by that site. In these cases, you may find it +necessary to fool the web site by having &konqueror; report itself to be +another browser by means of the user agent header. + + + + +Use + +In this module you can configure the +type of browser that &konqueror; will report itself to be. You can +control this information by web site. Usually, the list box that is +labeled Site/Domain Specific Identification will be +empty, so that &konqueror; will always use its default useragent +string. + +You can disable the sending of a user agent entirely, by +unchecking the Send identification +checkbox. This may cause strange behavior on some sites, and may even +deny you access to some websites, so disable this with caution. + +To configure a new agent binding, press the +New... button. Type the name of the server or +a domain in the text box at the top of the dialog that pops up, which +is labeled When browsing the following +site. + +Note that you can not use the wildcard +character * in this text box. However, the string +kde.org will match all hosts in the domain +kde.org + +After typing the name of the server, type in the identifying +string in the next combo box, which is labeled Use the +following identity:, or choose a string from the list. If +you don't choose a string from the list, you will need to know what a +valid string from the browser looks like. For example, you could type +Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.0). + +In the field labeled Alias (description) +you can enter a descriptive name for the configured binding, ⪚ +Netscape Navigator 4.75 on Linux for the +useragent string Mozilla/4.75 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.14 +i686). + +You can click on an existing entry in the Configured +agent bindings list, and then modify the contents of the +text boxes, followed by clicking Change.... + +The Delete button can be used to delete +the selected entry in the list of configured agent bindings. The +Delete All will remove all the configured user +agent strings. Click the Apply to take your +changes in effect. + +You can use the checkboxes at the top of the screen to build a +user agent that is uniquely yours, by choosing your own combination of +operating system name and version, platform, processor type, and +language. + +In all cases, the user agent that is being sent by default is +displayed in bold text at the top of the page. + + + + + +
