    yourbrowser.is - a free tool for checking customers' browsers

    Hi,

    I made this tool for myself after having to explain a customer how to check his browser make & version for the 1000th time.
    Then I made it look better and added a feature of creating own checker pages for other users.

    http://yourbrowser.is/

    How to use with your own customers:
    1. Register, enter your subdomain name, upload your logo.
    2. Add any custom variables to the URL with your subdomain, example:
    Code:
    http://mybrand.yourbrowser.is/?company=Funny%20Company&person=John%20Doe
    3. Provide your customer with the URL.
    4. Receive the report the moment your customers clicks the link.

    The report will include all the browser/system details visible on the page plus:
    - all the variables from the URL
    - full HTTP headers.

    What do you think?

    Love it. It's a great idea and also shows users the information they "leak" to the world. It captured that I was logged into Social Media and other things like flash.

    I always love to see when people care about every detail of their code. +1 for automatically updating my current viewport size onResize!

    But -1 for telling my JavaScript would be disabled, I guess a lot of the other information like FB / geo-location wouldn't be working if that would be true. You might want to fix that. You are also saying cookies woudn't be available, which isn't true neither. I made a screenshot, because you propably need to know what mybrowseris. Thats an inception, right?

    Keep up the good work!

    Notice: I am obviously not trustworthy enough to post the screenshot (at least thats what vB is telling me), please contact me and I'll send it to you!

    Niko,

    You are so not trustworthy that I even can't send a PM to you.

    Actually I don't need a screenshot - you can simply open my testing page, confirm and I will receive the report.

    Code:

    Please write here which of the reported values are wrong.

    Thanks.

    Wow, really cool visual display of this data! Nicely done! The geolocation script took about 15 seconds to show my location while the rest of the page loaded instantly.

    Hi xaban,

    It's a nice idea, but the javascript check doesn't work.

    It says it is off when in fact it is on.

    Same thing for cookies

    This has been fixed and now it's working properly.

    Cheers,

    Please hold on, it works properly on the main domain (yourbrowser.is) and client own domains (redirected by CNAME record) - but it fails with subdomains (such as mybrand.yourbrowser.is).

    Working on it now.
    Will keep you updated.
