get_browser

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

get_browser — 获取浏览器具有的功能

说明

get_browser ( string $user_agent = ? , bool $return_array = false ) : mixed

通过查找 browscap.ini 文件中的浏览器信息，尝试检测用户的浏览器所具有的功能。

参数

user_agent

要分析的用户代理。默认使用HTTP头中User-Agent的值，不过，你可以通过传递该参数改变User-Agent。(比如查找另一个浏览器的信息)

你可以传递一个 null 来忽略该参数。

return_array

如果设置为 true，该函数会返回一个 array，而不是 object。

返回值

信息会以包含一系列数据的数组或者对象返回。例如：浏览器的主版本号、次版本号和ID字符串；框架、JavaScript、cookies等功能是否支持 true/false 的值。

cookies 的值仅意味着浏览器是否具有接收cookies的功能，不代表用户是否已允许启用cookies。 测试的唯一办法，只有通过 setcookie() 设置一个cookie，刷新页面并检测该cookie的值。

范例

Example #1 列出所有用户浏览器的信息

<?php
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] . "\n\n";

$browser = get_browser(null, true);
print_r($browser);
?>

以上例程的输出类似于：

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040803 Firefox/0.9.3

Array
(
    [browser_name_regex] => ^mozilla/5\.0 (windows; .; windows nt 5\.1; .*rv:.*) gecko/.* firefox/0\.9.*$
    [browser_name_pattern] => Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; ?; Windows NT 5.1; *rv:*) Gecko/* Firefox/0.9*
    [parent] => Firefox 0.9
    [platform] => WinXP
    [browser] => Firefox
    [version] => 0.9
    [majorver] => 0
    [minorver] => 9
    [cssversion] => 2
    [frames] => 1
    [iframes] => 1
    [tables] => 1
    [cookies] => 1
    [backgroundsounds] =>
    [vbscript] =>
    [javascript] => 1
    [javaapplets] => 1
    [activexcontrols] =>
    [cdf] =>
    [aol] =>
    [beta] => 1
    [win16] =>
    [crawler] =>
    [stripper] =>
    [wap] =>
    [netclr] =>
)

注释

Note:

为了能让该函数运作，在 php.ini 中配置的 browscap 必须指向 browscap.ini 文件的正确位置。

browscap.ini 并未内置在PHP中，不过你可以在这里找到最新的 » php_browscap.ini。

browscap.ini 包含的诸多浏览器信息依赖于用户更新该数据库。该文件的格式不言自明。

Follow up to Francesco R's post from 2016.

His function works for most human traffic; added a few lines to cover the most common bot traffic. Also fixed issue with function failing to detect strings at position 0 due to strpos behavior.

<?php
// Function written and tested December, 2018
function get_browser_name($user_agent)
{
        // Make case insensitive.
        $t = strtolower($user_agent);

        // If the string *starts* with the string, strpos returns 0 (i.e., FALSE). Do a ghetto hack and start with a space.
        // "[strpos()] may return Boolean FALSE, but may also return a non-Boolean value which evaluates to FALSE."
        //     http://php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php
        $t = " " . $t;

        // Humans / Regular Users     
        if     (strpos($t, 'opera'     ) || strpos($t, 'opr/')     ) return 'Opera'            ;

To automatically update your browscap.ini file on linux servers, you can use this simple shell script:

wget -O /etc/browscap.ini "http://browscap.org/stream?q=Full_PHP_BrowsCapINI"
chmod 664 /etc/browscap.ini

You can put it in the weekly cron job folder usually located in /etc/cron.weekly just don't forget to make the script executable (chmod 775 scriptname).

As of PHP 7.0.15 and 7.1.1 and higher, get_browser() now performs much better - reportedly 100x faster.  The Changelog, bug description, and solution are here:

Good news! The latest version of PHP has a performance fix for this function. It's reportedly now 100x faster. See the ChangeLog for specifics.

To complete Francesco R, I added the version of the navigator :

function getNavigateur($user_agent)
    {

        if(empty($user_agent)) {
            return array('nav' => 'NC', 'name' => 'NC', 'version' => 'NC');
        }

        $content_nav['name'] = 'Unknown';

        if (strpos($user_agent, 'Opera') || strpos($user_agent, 'OPR/')) {

            $content_nav['name'] = 'Opera';

            if (strpos($user_agent, 'OPR/')) {
                $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'OPR/';
            } else {
                $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Opera';
            }

        }
        elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Edge')) {
            $content_nav['name'] = $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Edge';
        }
        elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Chrome')) $content_nav['name'] = $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Chrome';
        elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Safari')) $content_nav['name'] = $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Safari';
        elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Firefox')) $content_nav['name'] = $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Firefox';
        elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'MSIE') || strpos($user_agent, 'Trident/7') || strpos($user_agent, 'Trident/7.0; rv:')) {
            $content_nav['name'] = 'Internet Explorer';

            if (strpos($user_agent, 'Trident/7.0; rv:')) {
                $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Trident/7.0; rv:';
            } elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Trident/7')) {
                $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Trident/7';
            } else {
                $content_nav['reel_name'] = 'Opera';
            }

        }

        $pattern = '#' . $content_nav['reel_name'] . '\/*([0-9\.]*)#';

        $matches = array();

        if(preg_match($pattern, $user_agent, $matches)) {

            $content_nav['version'] = $matches[1];
            return $content_nav;

        }

        return array('name' => $content_nav['name'], 'version' => 'Inconnu');
    }

If you ONLY need a very fast and simple function to detect the browser name (update to May 2016):

<?php

function get_browser_name($user_agent)
{
    if (strpos($user_agent, 'Opera') || strpos($user_agent, 'OPR/')) return 'Opera';
    elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Edge')) return 'Edge';
    elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Chrome')) return 'Chrome';
    elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Safari')) return 'Safari';
    elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'Firefox')) return 'Firefox';
    elseif (strpos($user_agent, 'MSIE') || strpos($user_agent, 'Trident/7')) return 'Internet Explorer';
   
    return 'Other';
}

// Usage:

echo get_browser_name($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);

?>

This function also resolves the trouble with Edge (that contains in the user agent the string "Safari" and "Chrome"), with Chrome (contains the string "Safari") and IE11 (that do not contains 'MSIE' like all other IE versions).

Note that "strpos" is the fastest function to check a string (far better than "preg_match") and Opera + Edge + Chrome + Safari + Firefox + Internet Explorer are the most used browsers today (over 97%).

This function is too slow for todays needs.

If you need browser / device / operating system detection, please try one of listed packages here: https://github.com/ThaDafinser/UserAgentParser
p2 at eduardoruiz dot es 12-Jan-2016 12:58
BE CAREFUL WITH THIS FUNCTION!!
This function uses a lot of CPU and RAM on the whole server resources.
Perhaps if you use this function a few times then no problem, but NOT if you use at any page request, or once per session.

Also, this function doesn't work correctly and may returns wrong values, wildcards or empty, so it's not very useful for web statistics.

The best way is to use preg_match for detect browser/platform.
jeremie dot legrand at komori-chambon dot fr 16-Dec-2015 04:28
Be careful if you use the "Full" Browscap INI file in your php.ini config: I wondered why each Apache thread took 350MB RAM on my server until I changed the "Full" version by the "Lite" one (45MB to 0.7MB)

Now, each thread takes only 16MB...
So if it is enough for you, use the Lite version!

As ruudrp had given the code http://php.net/manual/en/function.get-browser.php#101125, I have added code for Internet Explorer 11

<?php
function getBrowser()

    $u_agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
    $bname = 'Unknown';
    $platform = 'Unknown';

Be aware that loading php_browscap.ini via the browscap php.ini setting may consume a non-trivial amount of memory. Current versions are several MB in size (even the "lite" one) and can eat tens of MB of RAM in each PHP process. This happens even if you never call get_browser() since php_browscap.ini is loaded when PHP is starting up.

Make sure to leave the browscap php.ini setting empty if you don't use get_browser() - maybe you only call it only from PHP Web pages, but not from PHP CLI code.

I'd recommend comparing your processes' memory consumption with and without php_browscap.ini being loaded. If necesseray, consider creating your own stripped-down copy of php_browscap.ini with just the browsers that are important to you.

For those of you using this function to target MSIE, a better idea maybe to use MSIE specific conditional comments. More info: <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537512%28VS.85%29.aspx>.

For example to indicate your disregard for users of MSIE 6 or earlier:

<!--[if lt IE 7]>It appears that you are using a <em>very</em> old version of MS Internet Explorer (MSIE). If you seriously want to continue to use MSIE, at least <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/">upgrade</a>.<![endif]-->

To my surprise I found that none of the get_browser alternatives output the correct name / version combination that I was looking for using Opera or Chrome. They either give the wrong name eg Safari when in fact it should be Chrome and if the ua string includes a version number as with the latest versions of Chrome and Opera the wrong number is reported. So I took bits and pieces from the various examples and combined them and added a check for version.

<?php
function getBrowser()
{
    $u_agent = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];
    $bname = 'Unknown';
    $platform = 'Unknown';
    $version= "";

    //First get the platform?
    if (preg_match('/linux/i', $u_agent)) {
        $platform = 'linux';
    }
    elseif (preg_match('/macintosh|mac os x/i', $u_agent)) {
        $platform = 'mac';
    }
    elseif (preg_match('/windows|win32/i', $u_agent)) {
        $platform = 'windows';
    }
   
    // Next get the name of the useragent yes seperately and for good reason
    if(preg_match('/MSIE/i',$u_agent) && !preg_match('/Opera/i',$u_agent))
    {
        $bname = 'Internet Explorer';
        $ub = "MSIE";
    }
    elseif(preg_match('/Firefox/i',$u_agent))
    {
        $bname = 'Mozilla Firefox';
        $ub = "Firefox";
    }
    elseif(preg_match('/Chrome/i',$u_agent))
    {
        $bname = 'Google Chrome';
        $ub = "Chrome";
    }
    elseif(preg_match('/Safari/i',$u_agent))
    {
        $bname = 'Apple Safari';
        $ub = "Safari";
    }

        $bname = 'Netscape';
        $ub = "Netscape";
    }
   
    // finally get the correct version number
    $known = array('Version', $ub, 'other');
    $pattern = '#(?<browser>' . join('|', $known) .
    ')[/ ]+(?<version>[0-9.|a-zA-Z.]*)#';
    if (!preg_match_all($pattern, $u_agent, $matches)) {
        // we have no matching number just continue
    }
   
    // see how many we have
    $i = count($matches['browser']);
    if ($i != 1) {
        //we will have two since we are not using 'other' argument yet
        //see if version is before or after the name
        if (strripos($u_agent,"Version") < strripos($u_agent,$ub)){
            $version= $matches['version'][0];
        }
        else {
            $version= $matches['version'][1];
        }
    }
    else {
        $version= $matches['version'][0];
    }
   
    // check if we have a number
    if ($version==null || $version=="") {$version="?";}
   
    return array(
        'userAgent' => $u_agent,
        'name'      => $bname,
        'version'   => $version,
        'platform'  => $platform,
        'pattern'    => $pattern

}

// now try it
$ua=getBrowser();
$yourbrowser= "Your browser: " . $ua['name'] . " " . $ua['version'] . " on " .$ua['platform'] . " reports: <br >" . $ua['userAgent'];
print_r($yourbrowser);
?>

You should not rely on just this for cross-browser compatibility issues.  Good practice would be to include HTML if-statements for IE stylesheets as well as dynamically checking the browser type.
max at phpexpert dot de 26-Mar-2004 07:14
Be aware of the fact that this function shows what a specific browser might be able to show, but NOT what the user has turned on/off.

So maybe this function tells you that the browser is abel to to javascript even when javascript is turned off by the user.
