Hi iChuzCHRIST (so do I )

I've just tested with MetaMod for Joomla 1.5 and 1.7, most recent versions of both, and the code above works for me. I tested with Internet Explorer v8, but I know from previous testing that it works on other versions too.

Could it be that you have the system cache plugin turned on? In that case, the entire page gets cached, so if you hit it with one browser first, then the result would get cached and displayed no matter what browser you use on it the next time.

If you're not using the system cache plugin, then try putting this into the MetaMod and test with different browsers:

echo "Browser type is: " . $core_genius->info("browser_type") . "<br  />";
if ($core_genius->check("browser_type = ie")) echo "It is IE!!!" . "<br  />";
echo "User agent is: " . $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] . "<br  />";
echo "MM_USER_AGENT: " . MM_USER_AGENT . "<br  />";


So, what comes up when you test this with an IE browser? What user agent does it give?

Thanks,
Stephen

About the IE8/IE7 question: I don't know without trying it out, though I suspect the compatibility mode does NOT change the browser version in the user agent string. You can try this out by using the code I suggested in my last post, then view the page with compat view on and off.

Cheers,
Stephen
