mobile skin detection problem (was: forum issue)


Recommended Posts

When I set up my new system the neowin forums worked fine! but then I installed the sound blaster creative x-fi software and a wierd thing happened, the form went to the mobile forum look... (see attached)

but on my systems that dont have it work fine! and i can turn it to full all the time the next time i go in, right back to the mobile version... my user agent string was changed by creative though!

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.5.21022; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30618; Creative AutoUpdate v1.10.10)

now if i remove the creative autoupdate crap it works fine again! why is the site reacting to the agent string wrong?

I have a similar problem on my iPhone (with hacks installed) and it doesn't properly detect it. I found cleaning the cookies and changing the forum skin at the bottom worked
