RE: ASERVE: accessing request-header-user-agent, how to

I have no help for you, only wanted to mention that this slot has contents
in my case, such as 

"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906
Firefox/3.0"

I get it using (net.aserve:header-slot-value request :user-agent) and also
wrote a small routine that parses the output, which seems to follow a loose
protocol. That way I have specific browser type and version for example.

Would appreciate to know if you learn something of interest on this topic.
My servers depend on using this informaiton.

Regards,

Greger Lindell
