Re: Firefox \ Iceweasel Differences?



Change the preference general.useragent.extra.firefox from
"Iceweasel/2.0.0.5" (or whatever your version is to "Firefox/2.0.0.5".

Worked like a treat, thanks!!

Then web sites won't be able to tell the difference, and FWIW you
should report the web site to it's owners as broken. User-agent
detection is broken behavior.

I feel it's the website not knowing the browser, hense, unable to render
the page properly. Thanks.


Not to get all gripey or anything, but there are web standards for precisely
this reason. See http://www.w3.org
