texte = Is there an undocumented tag called [platform]? I was rewriting some code that uses [browsername] to search through some text snippets and return a single character code that denotes the computer platform that's being used to access the page. In the course of my editing, I inadvertently left out a [founditems] context and was surprised to see -- instead of the p=M I expected -- p=Macintosh! If this is the case, how many different platforms are recognized, and by what names do they go by?P.S. Is there a list somewhere of all these undocumented calls? Why, I never knew about [math show=f] (even in the 2.1 docs) until I overheard it in unrelated code posted to this list.Rob Marquardt Designer/Resident Wirehead Toast Design300 First Avenue North, Suite 150 Minneapolis MN 55401 612.330.9863 v 612.321.9424 f www.toastdesign.com Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
