Spoof As ?
Quite a regular
Quite a regular


See User information
Our local independent news site (www.abc.net.au/news) has today started generating a "mobile" display by default. I now get a stripped-down "mobile" version on RA-OWB.

MUI-OWB has the ability to select "Spoof As..." and by selecting "FireFox 2.0 for Windows XP", I can get my display back, but is there any way I can spoof with RA-OWB?


cheers

Sadly, neither of those suggestions is usable. It does not support any tooltype that suggests spoofing, and the other utility is solely for editing saved bookmarks and hotlists.

I guess I'll just have to use MUI-OWB for the ABC and RA-OWB for everything else.

Unfortunately, it doesn't display websites correctly anyway.

...and this is exactly what the cycle gadget in the right upper corner does for you with OWBUtilities...

Included with "ClipDown", found on OS4Depot, is a script called "Start_OWB" that allows you to set the OWB user agent via a requester, starts ClipDown, then starts OWB. There are user settings at the top of the script and plenty of comments to tell you how to use it. If you don't want to use ClipDown you can just comment the lines below the user settings that have Clipdown in them. The request has a default time out of 3 seconds before is uses the default. This timeout can be set in the user settings. Maybe this will work for you.

@K-L:

Thanks, that SetEnv works once I edited it suitably. As you quoted it (and used in ClipDown), the command SetEnv "---" ends up saving an ENV-variable as

>echo $OWB_USER_AGENT
Mozilla/5.0 (iPad

- which obviously doesn't work. I changed it to:
"SetEnv OWB_USER_AGENT Mozilla/2.0" and it works just fine.

Thanks for all the help, now I can read the news again.


cheers
