Question

I'm trying to make a browser tracking for my website, so far it is going good. But when i came to Google Chrome it just say i'm in Chrome 20.x. When i look i'm in Chrome 23.x.

I have IE 8 and the code is as followed:

else if (ereg('MSIE ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})', $HTTP_USER_AGENT, $log_version)) { 
$browser_version = $log_version[1]; 
$browser_name = "IE";
$browser = $browser_name ." ".$browser_version;}

And for my Google Chrome tracker:

else if (ereg('Chrome ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})', $HTTP_USER_AGENT, $log_version)) { 
$browser_version = $log_version[1]; 
$browser_name = "Google Chrome";
$browser = $browser_name ." ".$browser_version;}

After the code it goes to my MySQL but if you try it you can simply echo the code.

How do I make it track the right browser version, and what is it i did wrong?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Looking at my user-agent for Chrome, it is formatted like this: Chrome/23.0.1271.64

Hence, you would have to change your Chrome regex from:

Chrome ([0-9].[0-9]{1,2})

to

Chrome/([0-9]{1,2}.[0-9]{1,2})
