Remarks
- The function returns the BrowserTypeUnknown constant if the browser used by the Web user is unknown.
- For a dynamic site (non-AWP site), the returned value corresponds to the browser used when connecting to the site. If the user changes browser (via a copy-paste of URL in another browser for example), this change is not detected.
- If your project uses pre-launched sessions, this function must not be used in the project initialization event. This function must be used in the "Initializing the project after connection to the site" event.
