Howto:

<?php

require_once('path/to/BrowserHelper.php');
// in case of namespaced

use path\to\BrowserHelper;


//in a function eg:
function print_useragent(){
    $browser = new BrowserHelper();
    $this->_browser = new BrowserHelper();
        // 
        if($browser->IsPlatform('Mac')): 
            // your actions for this platform
        else:
            // your actions for the other platforms
        endif;
        
        if($browser->IsUserBrowser('Chrome')): 
            // your actions for this browser
        else:
            // your actions for the other browsers
        endif;
        
        if($browser->IsUserBrowser('Chrome') and $browser->IsVersion('LessThanOrEqualTo', '70.0')): 
           // your actions for this browser and depending on the version number
        // if more comparisons
        elseif($browser->IsUserBrowser('Chrome') and $browser->IsVersion('LessThanOrEqualTo', '60.0')):   
            //second step, your actions for this browser and depending on the version number
        else:
           // your actions for the other browsers and version numbers
        endif;
    /**
     * this options are chainable!
    */
    //if you want it printed in html
    $browser->setUseHtml(true);
    //if you want a parent element eg:
    $browser->setWrapper('div');
    //if you want add attributes to the parent element eg:
    $browser->setAttribute('class="foo" style="css:rules"')
    //echo or return  $browser->getBrowserInfo();
}
    
// in a class
protected $_browser;
// within a class function eg:
public function __construct(){
    $this->_browser = new BrowserHelper();
    // 
    if($this->_browser->IsPlatform('Mac')): 
        // your actions for this platform
    else:
        // your actions for the other platforms
    endif;
    
    if($this->_browser->IsUserBrowser('Chrome')): 
        // your actions for this browser
    else:
        // your actions for the other browsers
    endif;
    
    if($this->_browser->IsUserBrowser('Chrome') and $this->_browser->IsVersion('LessThanOrEqualTo', '70.0')): 
       // your actions for this browser and depending on the version number
    // if more comparisons
    elseif($this->_browser->IsUserBrowser('Chrome') and $this->_browser->IsVersion('LessThanOrEqualTo', '60.0')):   
       //second step, your actions for this browser and depending on the version number
    else:
       // your actions for the other browsers and version numbers
    endif;
}

public function print_useragent(){
    /**
     * this options are chainable!
    */
    //if you want it printed in html
    $this->_browser->setUseHtml(true);
    //if you want a parent element eg:
    $this->_browser->setWrapper('div');
    //if you want add attributes to the parent element eg:
    $this->_browser->setAttribute('class="foo" style="css:rules"')

About me.

I'm not a php expert and just have a basic knowledge about it. I usually get there by looking up examples, making mistakes, learning and above all with persistence. Therefor constructive critic is always welcome.

In progress.

This site is in progress and there is still a lot to be done. Because I have limited time for that, the progress is at a slow pace. At the first page I have an html print of browserinfo.
