PHP User Agent Parser class: Parse the user agent and extract browser details

+1	by Manuel Lemos 11100 - 1 month ago (2015-12-23) Comment There are a few classes for this purpose. This one has been updated recently and can detect other browser capabilities besides detecting whether it is being run on a mobile device or not.

  download the zip file from mobiledetect.net above and here is the code to detect the type of device.

  include_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/detect/Mobile_Detect.php';

  function deviceType() { $detect = new Mobile_Detect; $deviceType = ($detect->isMobile() ? ($detect->isTablet() ? 'tablet' : 'phone') : 'computer');

  $_SESSION['DeviceType']=$deviceType;

  return $deviceType; }
