Title: Internet Explorer Spoofing?
Post by: DJ on 30 October 2002, 02:25

I read a couple threads where people mentioned that they were running Mozilla in "IE" mode or at least making websites/servers believe that it is IE. How do you set this up? I am at school and they do not allow Java script and a site I wanted to visit has some java enabled on it, just wanted to be able to see it is all thatnks

You need the Mozilla preferences toolbar for this. Go here (http://www.xulplanet.com) and download it.   ;)

I never knew about this.  Sounds good.  Might have to install it while *gasp* running mozilla as root.

It is pretty slick. All of the options that it changes can be changed manually in the "prefs.js" though. But it's nice having it all on a configurable little toolbar.

Kicks Arse

And actually you dont need the prefrences toolbar. It works fine if you just hack the Mozilla Source, I did that a while ago.

All you need is VIM

Boy, you like to do things the hard way. It's actually much simpler than that. All you have to do is add this line to your "~/.mozilla/userid/*/prefs.js" file:

Code: [Select]

Which is all the tool bar does when you select a different user agent.
