Le « UA Sniffing » c’est mal. Mais si vous êtes obligé (je prie pour que ça ne m’arrive pas)...
WURFL - Mobile Device Database by ScientiaMobile
►http://wurfl.sourceforge.net/wurfl.php
WURFL = Wireless Universal Resource FiLe
Note: At the time when WURFL was first created (2001), the term ’wireless’ referred to mean what we currently call ’mobile’.
WURFL is a Device Description Repository (DDR), i.e. a framework that enables applications to map HTTP requests to a description of the capability of the mobile device that requests the page.
In this regard, WURFL pre-dates the time when the DDR term was coined and could arguably be caracterized as the first DDR.
In the last year, WURFL role has expended from being a DDR for mobile devices to being a framework to detect every HTTP client worth recognizing.
Thanks to WURFL, mobile web sites and application can :
– programmatically abstract away devices differences
– avoid the need to modify applications whenever a new device ships
– avoid the need to track new devices on the market
– WURFL is a global database of all devices and the API to tap that information programmatically.
Toutes mes excuses à ceux que j’aurais choqué.
