Nice tool.
It wood be nicer if we could just pick the UserAgent name from a drop-down box. We could populate some .ini file with the desired useragents.

Could this be done for the Harmattan browser aswell?

Could you tell me if it contains a setting so that the website thinks it's a pc trying to access? Fed up getting mobile sites where I used to get the full site.

Thanks

grob contains UA string in binary, not in some file, so, harmattan version is not possible at the moment, maybe if grob would be recompiled....it would be possible...

This is some what correct, however, there was an applet in settings (Pre-Beta 1 FW) which allowed you to alter the UA.

yes, i remember that, but, i am not sure how was grob compiled back then, i think it probably was like microb or something (with UA string in textual form) or even in gconf...idk..i assume grob is not opensource...otherwise we can edit that thing and recompile...though

AFAIK grob is closed source hence we had to edit the binary directly to change the UA string...


Edit: If we can get the applet from pre-beta1 fw as well as the grob of that time we might be able to do some comparisons and see what can be done...IIRC grob is changed every update in fw but the binary has been closed source since day one...


Edit2: I had yesterday sent the grob files and refhashlist to marmistrz for pr1.3 and he is looking thru them to see if he can do any similar implementation...Just thought to let your'll know...
