how to dedicat a files to a specific browser

Post by hakurul-kaneeru »

I have made a simple browser in VB expression edition 2008. I have published it as mybrowser.exe and i have installed it. How can make my pages view ONLY using by browser. i know the browser in VB is actually IE. I want some browser detecting scripts and pop up a message saying "this page requires mybrowser.exe" if they try to open with IE or FF. etc...IS IT POSSIBLE?????.... pls help....

Browser detection is not under your control. However, if the user agent supplies an identifier, it will be present in $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']. However again, that value may or may not be correct.
Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.

You might set your browser's user agent (if you can) so a secret hash, and communicate over HTTPS to keep the hash from being discovered.
