issue about useragent test #3

Closed bjjay closed 13 years ago

bjjay commented 13 years ago

In the HBBTV Specification part 7.3.2.4, it gives two examples, the second example doesn't pass in current useragent test. In the validate.php file, line 41 to line 48 should be removed.

Hello bjjay,

thanks for the comment. Yes, I know, you are right. This is the only test in the testsuite which tests more than what is required by the specification. But as an application developer, I want to express how important it is for us to be able to detect the device using the user agent. So I'd really like to keep this test as it is in order to encourage manufacturers to provide this information.

In case this causes real problems for you, please re-open this issue.
