Firefox useragent

[hazza96]

I recently installed Firefox 1.04 from backports. I then tried to install some themes from www.mozilla.org (https://addons.mozilla.org/themes/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&numpg=10&id=9) and it kept saying that I did not have the latest 1.04 and I should download and upgrade.

I found that the useragnet reported by the BP Firefox 1.04 was "Firefox/1.0"

I searched and found that the file "/usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/defaults/pref/firefox.js" contains the reported useragent. Edit that file so that that line 130 says 1.0.4 and you are away.

Mine says 1.0.4 and it still won't let me update. How do you find out what your browser is reporting as?

This is whatmy code says

pref("app.version",
"1.0.4"

just put
about:config
in Firefox address bar, find the preference general.useragent.vendorSub and change its value to 1.0.4

(Kyral: I think you're changing the wrong preference)

Hehe, that got it, thanks.

Man do I feel stupid.... :-P
