Is there any way to detect the browser type in PHP?

Thanks,

the variable $HTTP_USER_AGENT contain a string of user agent info, including browser type. Parse the string information to get the browser type.

Alternatively, you can use get_browser() which returns an array instead of a string as $HTTP_USER_AGENT does.
It's in the manual.
