Here's one I used on a project a couple of years ago:

public final class DetectBrowser implements Serializable {

    private HttpServletRequest request = null;
    private String useragent = null;
    private boolean netEnabled = false;
    private boolean ie = false;
    private boolean ns = false;
    private boolean mac = false;
    private boolean win = false;

    public void setRequest(HttpServletRequest req)
    {
        request = req;
        useragent = request.getHeader("User-Agent");
        String user = useragent.toLowerCase();

        if (user.indexOf("msie") != -1) {
            ie = true;
        } else if (user.indexOf("gecko") != -1) {
            ns = true;
        }

        if (user.indexOf("mac") != -1) {
            mac = true;
        }

    }

    public String getUseragent()
    {
        return useragent;
    }

    public boolean isNetEnabled()
    {
        return netEnabled;
    }

    public boolean isIE()
    {
        return ie;
    }

    public boolean isNS()
    {
        return ns;
    }

    public boolean isMac()
    {
        return mac;
    }
}

Thanks, Kent.

Since I need this, I will gladly code it in Java and contribute it back to
the Tapestry project.

However, before I begin... does anybody already have a Java class that does
this, so I don't have to reinvent the wheel?


Thanks!
Dave

I'm unaware of any such component, but you can get a
javascript to do that at
http://www.dithered.com/javascript/browser_detect/browser_detect.txt

If you'd like, you can convert it to a component. However,
as it is not generating any html code, it doesn't look
like a good candidate for a component to me. I'd code it
in a Java class (eg, BrowserDetector.java).
