SET !USERAGENT WHITESPACE ISSUE

Post by justinknox » Wed Dec 03, 2008 3:39 pm

I am tryingto make use of the below feature where you can change user agent
SET !USERAGENT "Some User-Agent Mozilla"

When I put a space in the string it always returns with an error
SyntaxError: wrong format for SET command, line 4
If I remove the white space from the string it works perfectly

In the documentation it states ,if there is a white space, to surround the text with a "" which I have done but this does not work

I have also tried URL encoding but this does not work either

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Please try <SP> for white space

Here in case of your example will looks like........
Some<SP>User-Agent<SP>Mozilla

dhardmendra2000 is correct. I used this awhile back and it does indeed require the <SP> to fill whitespaces. Becareful using this... because say you set the useragent to appear as IE and you do not set it back to appear as your current version of FireFox... it will stay set as IE. Which means that it can break certain plugins in FireFox if the site determines iyou are using FF or IE from your useragent tag.
