Description
Similar to #11572, but that is about HaikuWebKit, not WebKit/AppleWebKit version.
On hrev55788/x86_64/QEMU.
About dialog says:
Version 1.3-alpha
HaikuWebKit 1.8.4
WebKit 613.1.10
User-Agent header and navigator.userAgent are same:
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Haiku R1)
AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko)
WebPositive/1.3 Version/14.1.2 Safari/605.1.15
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
This is intentional. The version reported in the user agent is never changed and matches with the version reported by Safari and other Webkit based browsers. This was done to avoid websites relying on it to enable or disable features or decide that the browser is outdated without checking if it actually includes the features they need.
