Investigate proper user agent for 9.3.0 #171

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The user agent, optimally, should give mobile content that does not require 
JavaScript or WebKit. Here are some things that should/should not happen:

news.cnet.com should move to m.cnet.com

www.twitter.com should move to a NON-iOS mobile.twitter.com

Facebook?

The new user agent is loaded into the Http channel handler. Next step is to 
have entries in pref-ua.xul that credibly resemble the old settings without 
having to add new strings.

maps.google.com doesn't like this. We should remove the Macintosh portions.

Now settled on NokiaN90-1/3.0545.5.1 Series60/2.8 Profile/MIDP-2.0 
Configuration/CLDC-1.1 (en-US; rv:9.3.0) Clecko/20120114 Classilla/CFM

Besides being shorter, this doesn't tip anything that isn't already aware of 
Classilla off.

Is there a possibility to get a field for a random User Agent? This possibility 
is availaible in iCab, and experianced users may play around theirselves to 
reach the/their optimal solutions. There may even be User Agents that recently 
do not exist, but will lead in 5 years to an optimal solution.

There already is: general.useragent.override

You can set that manually from about:config and it will be used in place of 
whatever the default is. I resist putting this in the UI; we don't have much 
room in the pref box anyway and I figure if you know about about:config, you 
can do anything you want.
