Hacking around with PHP to have a better solution than get_browser()
PHP’s native get_browser() function parses this file and provides you with a complete set of information about every browser’s details, But it requires the path to the browscap.ini file to be specified in the php.ini browscap directive which is flagged as
PHP_INI_SYSTEM
.Since in most shared hosting environments you have not access to the php.ini file, the browscap directive cannot be modified and you are stuck with either and outdated database or without browscap support at all.
Browscap is a standalone class for PHP >=5.3 that gets around the limitations of
get_browser()
and manages the whole thing. It offers methods to update, cache, adapt and get details about every supplied user agent on a standalone basis. It’s also much faster thanget_browser()
while still returning the same results.

There are great problems for those who want real responsive images.
Note to self: The lazy, cross-browser, cross-device (desktop and mobile), low overhead, kinda light, solution so far is:
- make your images 2x their display size
- compress them with high compression ratio (30% quality)
- and set their size by css (using media queries if needed)

This is good and bad at the same time. Fair and unfair. Nevertheless it’s a game changer.

A helpful online tool for wordpress development:
The easiest and the fastest way to create custom and high quality code for your WordPress project using the latest WordPress coding standards and API’s.
Four alternative CMS to WordPress I recently discovered (presented in no particular order):
- PencilBlue – Requires nodeJs
- Bolt – Silex based with Symfony components
- October – Laravel based
- Builder Engine – Codeingiter based
- Go to builderengine.org for the open sourced, self hosted version and builderengine.com for the cloud SaaS solution.
- Cockpit – Maybe I already posted this one, but it fits perfectly on this list. More developer oriented, like a pre-made backoffice to create content and an API to get those contents. Clever project.
- ci_bootstrap_3 – less polished, more of a developer thing, but is a good mix of components based on Codeingiter 3.
