Editing or creating user agent entries
You can edit found entries or add new ones through UserAgentRevealer.exe
.
About this task
If the user agent entry cannot be identified, the Type
value in the usersupplement.csv
file is set to UNKNOWN
.
In these instances, you can add the user agent string to the usersupplement.csv
file
with values that you define.
If the user agent entry in the usercap.csv
file contains errors or values that
you would like to change, you can create an entry with the overriding data in
usercap.csv
. These values are used instead of the value that is listed in the
applicable public standard (browscap.csv
).
All information that is entered into the fields is case-sensitive. Double quotation marks cannot be used and are stripped from the input.
