## Descripción

Quick Browscap allows you to quickly get detailed browser capabilities from user
agent string using database provided by [Browser Capabilities Project](http://browsers.garykeith.com/).
It also supports updating browser capabilities database using single click without
updating Quick Browscap as well as updating this database automatically. This plugin
doesn’t have end user functionality because it’s meant to be used by other WordPress
plugins.

#### Quick Browscap feature highlights

 * When compared to native PHP [get_browser()](http://php.net/manual/en/function.get-browser.php)
   function, Quick Browscap can be easily used on shared hosting environments.
 * Browser capabilities database can be updated using single click without updating
   Quick Browscap plugin.
 * Browser capabilities database can be auto updated weekly without updating Quick
   Browscap plugin.
 * After database update PHP cache file is created to avoid parsing database on 
   every access.

## FAQ

  1. How can I get detailed browser capabilities from user agent string from my 
own PHP code?

Here’s typical example:

    ```
    global $quick_browscap;
    if(isset($quick_browscap) && is_object($quick_browscap)){
        $agent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_2; en-us) AppleWebKit/525.18 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.1.1 Safari/525.18';

        /*
        * First argument is user agent (string, optional, default is $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']).
        * Second argument is return array or not (bool, optional, default is false to return object).
        * Example to return capabilities for given agent string $agent as PHP array.
        */
        $bw_info = $quick_browscap->get_browser($agent, true);

        /* Output $bw_info array */
        echo '<pre>'.print_r($bw_info, true).echo '</pre>';
    }
    ```

This is output of the preceeding code:

    ```
    Array
    (
        [browser_name] => Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_2; en-us) AppleWebKit/525.18 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.1.1 Safari/525.18

  2. How can end user update browser capabilities database?

If users hosting environment supports fetching remote content user can go to Admin-
> Settings -> Quick Browscap and click «Update» button. User will be informed if
update was successful or not. Quick Browscap works out the box because it bundles
latest browser capabilities database at the time of release.

Yes. Default behavior is to update browser capabilities database automatically every
seven days (weekly). Auto update can be toggled using Admin -> Settings -> Quick
Browscap -> Enable automatic weekly database update check checkbox.

Define `WP_DEBUG` constant in your wp-config.php or turn on the debug mode from 
Admin -> Settings -> Quick Browscap -> Debug mode.
