<browserCaps> and NULL UserAgent


There are some Requests that occur that have a NULL UserAgent. Some of these
are legitimate crawlers (e.g., Overture's crawler), and I'm attempting to
adjust my <browserCaps> to correctly classify crawlers.

In an attempt to capture browsers with (UserAgent == null), I've added a
case like this:

<filter>
<case match="^$">
crawler=true
</case>
</filter>

But that only seems to trap the empty string (as expected, really).

Does anyone know a way to match the null string?

Thanks,
j

Hi Jason,

I have conferred with all of the experts, and the bottom line is that this
cannot be done. You can match an empty string, but you cannot match
something that is undefined. In order to match something with RegEx, you
must first define it.

In the process of troubleshooting your issue, I was pointed at a really
cool tool that I thought I'd share with you. Here it is:

Perhaps I'm missing something. Why not just test the
Request.Headers["User-Agent"] against null?

Because I'm want to do this centrally in the machine.config's <browserCaps>
so that it doesn't litter my code all over the place.

Jason,

That's just not going to be possible via the machine.config file. There is
no Regular Expression that will match a value that is not defined.

Perhaps I'm missing something. Why not just test the

Too bad.

Can you get this feedback to the Whidbey team, as there are a growing number
of popular crawlers that are simply using NULL as their UserAgent?

It would seem that some special attribute would have to be introduced to the
<case> tag to make this match.

Thanks,

Jason,

That's just not going to be possible via the machine.config file. There is no Regular Expression that will match a value that is not defined.

Jason,

It would take a little work on your part, but you could do this by simply
changing the default for "crawler" to true. You would then need to alter
each case statement to set crawler to false.
