Hello !

You can't output the user agent like this. You could do:


data = getIndpEnv:HTTP_USER_AGENT

But it will simply output the full http user agent. I guess you read 
about "useragnet" and "device" in the conditions section of TSref. Now 
you should note that "conditions" are the stuff you can put into 
rectangular brackets like:

[device = ipod]

... such things should work (I guess iPod is currently no valid value..)

but you can't use those "device" strings somewhere else except for 
conditions. what you could do is make a condition for every device you 
support:

temp.myDevice = TEXT
[device = noki]
temp.myDevice.value = Nokia
[device = eric]
temp.myDevice.value = Ericson
[device = wap]
temp.myDevice.value = WAP
[else]
temp.myDevice.value = Some other device
[end]

... this would of course work and you could extend it to any supported 
detectable device as listed in:
"t3lib/utility/class.t3lib_utility_client.php"
