Richard, You would do that by looking at the user_agent parameter that is being send by the browser to the server. PHP automatically places the user_agent information in the superglobal: $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']. The user_agent string might seems cryptic, therefore PHP provides you a built-in function for representing the user agent information in an object with properties representing the features of the browser. The function is get_browser(). Link to documentation of this function:
