Frequently asked questions.
How do I use Detector?
In order to access the features you need to use the $ua object that is automatically created with the inclusion of Detector in your application. Use the $ua object in a similar way that you would have used the Modernizr object on the client-side:
global $ua; // your script if ($ua->svg) { ... } elseif ($ua->canvas) { ... }
See the full list of browser features that are tested by Modernizr and available with Detector. All of the features tested with ua-parser-php are also available from the $ua variable (e.g. $ua->isMobile or $ua->browserFull )
