Current Browser Capability

Browser capability is an application object that allows us to profile a Web site visitor based on the attributes or capabilities of the browser being used. When applicable, it appears in the rule editors as an option when we select Resource.Attribute.

Browser Capability currently supports these attributes:

  • AcceptLanguage

  • AcceptMimeTypes

  • Agent

  • BrowserType

  • FullVersion

  • MajorVersion

AcceptLanguage Returns the value of the header 'accept-language' from the request object.
AcceptMimeTypes Returns the value of the header 'accept' from the request object.
Agent Returns the value of the header 'user-agent' from the request object. This is a lowercase string that contains information about the client software, usually the browser name or version.
BrowserType Returns the browser type. Choices are available for Mozilla, Firefox, Netscape, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera, and Other.
FullVersion Returns the version of the browser to one point of precision. For instance, 6.1 and 6.1.1 are both returned as 6.1.
MajorVersion Returns the first digit of the browser version. For instance, 6.0, 6.1 and 6.1.1 are all returned as 6.
