Compatibility View in advertised_browser_version
Posted: Thu Apr 28, 2016 8:14 am
Hello
we are using the WURFL cloud with the advertised_browser_version capability
For IE Users I noticed that we get for IE 8,9 and 10 always an "(Compatibility View)" for that field
e.g.
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; GTB7.4; InfoPath.2; SV1; .NET CLR 3.3.69573; WOW64; en-US)
results in
8(Compatibility View)
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 7.1; Trident/5.0)
results in
9(Compatibility View)
After I google a bit I saw that the compatibility view is identified by the Trident parameter:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/librar ... x#TriToken
When I checked our accesslog almost all traffic has this Trident parameter.
But as long as the trident value matches (value+4) the MSIE it is not the Compatibility View
So my example should not be one?
