Chapter 9: Client Detection
}();
//detection of rendering engines/platforms/devices here
return {
engine: engine,
browser: browser,
system: system
};
The following code detects each of these game systems:
system.wii = ua.indexOf(“Wii”) > -1;
system.ps = /playstation/i.test(ua);
For the Wii, a simple test for the string ” Wii ” is enough. The rest of the code will pick up that the
browser is Opera and return the correct version number in client.browser.opera . For the
Playstation, a regular expression is used to test against the user-agent string in a case - insensitive way.
The Complete Script
The complete user - agent detection script, including rendering engines, platforms, Windows operating
systems, mobile devices, and game systems is as follows:
var client = function(){
//rendering engines
var engine = {
ie: 0,
gecko: 0,
webkit: 0,
khtml: 0,
opera: 0,
};
//complete version
ver: null
//browsers
var browser = {
//browsers
ie: 0,
firefox: 0,
safari: 0,
konq: 0,
opera: 0,
chrome: 0,
safari: 0,
//specific version
ver: null
}; (continued)
