depends on which version of .net

1.1 look at the browsercaps section in the machine.config
2.0 look in browsers folder in the .net config dir

in any case as it depends on the agent string (and browsers lie), it not
completely reliable.

Request.Browser.Type should identify Firefox 100% of the time.

Please test any browser you have doubts on by visiting :
http://asp.net.do/test/browserDetect.aspx

with the browser you want to detect.

If any browser is not detected correctly I'll be glad to
modify my script so it *is* detected and share the info with you.

Yeah im using .net 2.

THanks for the list. THough the problem is i cannot detect specifically firefox, because IE also says it is a mozilla
browser.

So i guess i will be forced to use Request.Browser.Browser
?
