[edit] Details
Browser Blacklist for unicode non compliant browsers. Contains a list of regexps : "/regexp/" matching problematic browsers. If the user-agent of a browser matches one such regex, the "safemode" field is used when editing (see the safemode item in Manual:Parameters to index.php#Optional additional data for details).
[edit] Default Values
[edit] Current version
From some later version of MW than 1.7.0, this setting had the following default values:
$wgBrowserBlackList = array( /** * Netscape 2-4 detection * The minor version may contain strings such as "Gold" or "SGoldC-SGI" * Lots of non-netscape user agents have "compatible", so it's useful to check for that * with a negative assertion. The [UIN] identifier specifies the level of security * in a Netscape/Mozilla browser, checking for it rules out a number of fakers. * The language string is unreliable, it is missing on NS4 Mac. * * Reference: http://www.psychedelix.com/agents/index.shtml */ '/^Mozilla\/2\.[^ ]+ [^(]*?\((?!compatible).*; [UIN]/', '/^Mozilla\/3\.[^ ]+ [^(]*?\((?!compatible).*; [UIN]/', '/^Mozilla\/4\.[^ ]+ [^(]*?\((?!compatible).*; [UIN]/', /** * MSIE on Mac OS 9 is teh sux0r, converts þ to <thorn>, ð to <eth>, Þ to <THORN> and Ð to <ETH> * * Known useragents: * - Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Mac_PowerPC) * - Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.15; Mac_PowerPC) * - Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.23; Mac_PowerPC) * - [...] * * @link http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3A%C6var_Arnfj%F6r%F0_Bjarmason%2Ftestme&diff=12356041&oldid=12355864 * @link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template%3AOS9 */ '/^Mozilla\/4\.0 \(compatible; MSIE \d+\.\d+; Mac_PowerPC\)/', /** * Google wireless transcoder, seems to eat a lot of chars alive * http://it.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Luciano_Ligabue&diff=prev&oldid=8857361 */ '/^Mozilla\/4\.0 \(compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; Google Wireless Transcoder;\)/' );
The changes between this and the previous version are:
- There was a change to regexes for Netscape 2-4 detection.
- The Google Wireless Transcoder regex was added.
[edit] 1.7.0
From 1.7.0 until it was changed to the current version (we've not yet figured out when this was...), this setting had the following default values:
$wgBrowserBlackList = array( /** * Netscape 2-4 detection * The minor version may contain strings such as "Gold" or "SGoldC-SGI" * Lots of non-netscape user agents have "compatible", so it's useful to check for that * with a negative assertion.
