    Hello,

    I am looking for some sort of plug in for Word Press or Moodle (or another way) to check a client's browser and browser add ons. I run a Moodle site and want people to see if their set up is compatible with our system. Here is what I need to check:

    • Browser
    • Flash installed or not and what version
    • Java install and what version
    • Cookies enabled
    • Pop up blocker on/off
    • Macromedia Shockwave installed

    Here is a link as to what I am after. It is a link they have from their Moodle site.

    Any help or direction would be appreciated. I am not sure if I am even using the right buzz words to let you know what I need.

    Cheers,
    Dave

    Yes, it would definitely have to be done with JavaScript.

    This will detect Java:

    if(navigator.javaEnabled()) {
    
    alert("yes");
    
    }
    Code (markup):
    This will detect Flash:

    if(navigator.mimeTypes["application/futuresplash"]) {
    
    alert("yes");
    
    }
    Code (markup):
