Hi Amit,

this cant be done directly in php, as plugin information is not in the header information sent from the browser to server. (HTTP_USER_AGENT only stores browser name and version, and operating system details)

It can be done using a combination of javascript and vbscript courtesy of O'reilly and Apple Developer Connection the results of which can be stored and manipulated(in php) using cookies/sessions or post/get
