OS incompatibility
By hub, Tuesday 8 November 2005 at 00:32 :: Linux
The governement of Canada does not like Linux. They don't let me apply for the unemployement online, as they told me to do after I came at their office to get the information.
They "check" the browser, and the code is voluntarily bogus:
The check the "User Agent" string, find the OS, and set OS_Good
to true
only if they found Windows or MacOS. Then they never set isGood
to true
because of that.
See script 1 and script 2. You'll see that they do it on purpose as they already check all the cases for less common platforms.
*sigh*
