Hi David
The user agent string will be:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC; en-US; rv:0.9.4) Gecko/20011022 Netscape6/6.2
So your script is using 0.9.4 revision number (the 0.9.4.1 mozilla
branch that 6.2 is based on) instead of the Netscape6/6.2 bit.
Bummer. :)
Does that make it easier for you to fix your script up?
Cheers
Andrew
