Detect browser name

Hi!
I need to define the type of client web-browser (Opera, Ie, chrome, firefox), under which launched forms.
Tell me, please, how I do it.
I am using FORMS 10.1.2.3.0
Edited by: Ihavoker on 09.12.2010 11:25

Create this simple html page:
<HTML>
<script type="text/javascript">
var nav_name = navigator.appName + " " + navigator.appVersion;
var url = "http://machine:8889/forms/frmservlet?config=myconfig&form=test.fmx&otherparams=BROWSER="+nav_name;
window.location.href = url ;
</script>
<BODY>
</BODY>
</HTML>Then just add a BROWSER parameter to your starting form.

Is it possible to detect browser information directly from FLEX????

Hi All,
Can we detect our browser information (Browser Name, Version
etc) directly from FLEX? I don't want to use External Interface for
this purpose. Pease reply me soon.
Thanks,
Amit

Hi Amit,
The replies from Gnomann are correct.
Following the logic that Gnomann cited in his second post
(suggesting using ExternalInterface to execute browser JavaScript),
following are some examples.
These examples also demonstrate how JavaScript methods can be
written in-line directly in the ExternalInterface.call() execution:
var appName:String =
ExternalInterface.call( "function getAppName(){ return
navigator.appName; }"
var userAgent:String =
ExternalInterface.call( "function getUserAgent() { return
navigator.userAgent; }"
var appVersion:String =
ExternalInterface.call( "function getAppVersion(){ return
navigator.appVersion; }"
I have posted a different, runnable example here:
http://flexflashvideo.com/codesamples/flex/flex3/browserinfo/
You can right-click on the swf at the link above for "
View
Source"
btw ... an advantage of writing the JavaScript methods
in-line in the ActionScript ExternalInterface.call() executions is
that all of the code can be encapsulated in the Flex logic. That is
you do not have to write the JavaScript separately in the HTML
wrapper. You can if you want, of course. Certainly no harm in that
;-) Since your original question was how to detect the browser
information "directly from FLEX", I suspect you might like being
able to write the JavaScript methods in-line ;-)
Please post back regarding whether the above answers your
question, and if you find it helpful :-)
Best regards,

How to detect browser window move?

Hi,
I want to know if there is certain event defined in Java to detect browser window move. Like in JavaScript, there is an event handler "onMove".
Thanks.

No, I think you can have "onMove" call a java function.

How to Detect browser crash

hi i want to know how to detect browser crash or the way to go about it , i can use any language to any api's plz specify me some solution .It would be really healpfull

paul_123 wrote: hi i want to know how to detect browser crash ..
Like the other person that replied, I do not quite understand why it is of interest that the end user's browser crashes. If, like they suspect, it is to do with your applet, I think the best solution is to launch the applet using webstart and forget the browser. If the end user launches a webstart based applet from the browser and the browser crashes, the applet will keep working just fine.
Is your applet publicly available? If so, what is the URL where we can see it?

                    address = (InetAddress)e2.nextElement();
                    if( !address.isLoopbackAddress() && !address.isSiteLocalAddress() )
                         return address;
     }catch(Exception e){}

Trouble detecting browser close in Internet Explorer

Please help!
I'm trying to detect when the browser closes (or tab closes, or page reloads, etc.) so that I can save user information. I've followed the advice of others on the web, and have it working with Firefox, but not IE. The code in my wrapper is below, which attempts to get access to the embedded swf object a variety of ways to presumably handle multiple browsers. PLEASE HELP!
// Function to get a reference to the embedded swf file
                    function getFlashMovieObject(movieName)
                      if (window.document[movieName])
                          return window.document[movieName];
                      if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft Internet") == -1)
                        if (document.embeds && document.embeds[movieName])
                          return document.embeds[movieName];
                      else // if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft Internet") != -1)
                        return document.getElementById(movieName);
Here's the code that calls this function:
                    window.onbeforeunload = function()
                        var myApp = getFlashMovieObject("MySwf");
                        return myApp.onCloseApplication();
Here's the code that embeds the swf:
                  var flashVars = {};
                  var strHref = window.location.href;
                  if ( strHref.indexOf("?") > -1 )
                        var strQueryString = strHref.substr(strHref.indexOf("?")+1);
                        var aQueryString = strQueryString.split("&");
                        for ( var iParam = 0; iParam < aQueryString.length; iParam++ )
                            var aParam = aQueryString[iParam].split("=");
                            flashVars[aParam[0]] = aParam[1];
                var params = {};
                params.quality = "high";
                params.bgcolor = "#ffffff";
                params.allowscriptaccess = "sameDomain";
                var attributes = {};
                attributes.id = "MySwf";
                attributes.name = "MySwf";
                attributes.align = "middle";
                  //create your instance of your SWF
                  swfobject.embedSWF("MySwf.swf", "flashContent", "100%", "100%", "10.0.0", "expressInstall.swf",
                    flashVars, params,attributes);

How to detect Browser Version using JSP ?

Hi friends,
Previously i have asked regarding browser detection.
Now i want to inquiry regarding version detection.
I have to block the users other than IE6+.
So how i do that ??
Remember : Other than IE6+ users are blocked.
Please Help Me...

well in general request.getHeader("user-agent"); should help you but in few cases it may not work in because of few security reasons.
the best work around for this problem would be usage of javascript and sending browser realted information via hidden parameter
and here is an example for you
<body>
<form name="sampleForm" action="randomAction">
   <input type="hidden" id="browserVersion" name="browserVersion" />
   <input type="hidden" id="userAgentHeader" name="userAgentHeader"/>
     <input type="hidden" id="appCode" name="appCode"/>
</form>
<script language="javascript">
this.document.getElementById('browserVersion').value = navigator.appName+' '+navigator.appVersion;
   this.document.getElementById('userAgentHeader').value = navigator.userAgent;
   this.document.getElementById('appCode').value = navigator.appCodeName;
</script>
</body>and you would get the info by getting
request.getParameter("appCode");and etc..
hope this might help :)
REGARDS,
RaHuL
