    browser plugin info

    Is there an easy way to get info from browsers on what plugins they have
    installed? For example, what version of quicktime does the browser have
    installed if any?

    Thanks

              php only has access to the info provided in the request headers and browser
              plugins aren't part of that info. At least not last time I checked.

                  It just blows me away that people can't comprehend the difference
                  between a server-side and a client-side language!

                  No, of course "php can't do it" it isn't SUPPOSED to be able to
                  do it. That's not a bug, that's a FEATURE.
