Lectora BrowserType Variable and everything but IE Browser
March 30, 2012 12:00 AM
Hi Everyone,
I'm testing the iPad, iPhone and the Google Chrome browser with Lectora built SCORM courses. I noticed when using the BrowserType variable, it is always wrong if it is not Internet Explorer. I created a button that will display VAR(BrowserType). When I click the button in Internet Explorer, the popup window says "Microsoft Internet Explorer", which is great but doesn't say the version. When I click the button on an iPad, the popup says "Netscape". When I click on the button on an iPhone, it says "Netscape". When I click on the button in Chrome, it says "Netscape".
Why is it so Netscape-centric?? I'll like to create a course one day that will use the BrowserType to determine the browser and/or operating system, so that it can then display the optimum screen size and content (Flash vs no Flash).
Thanks in advance.
