I am trying to retrive a web site for local cinema times/reviews...
(http://www.readingcinemas.com.au/t_m...asp?Mov_Id=290)

but get a load of bumf at the top of the retirved page as follows "The site requires a more recent browser......".

I have changed my user agent to ...

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4a) Gecko/2003040

which is my desktop browser that views the page without problems. I have also tried...

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)

as sugguest in this forum. I have retrived the site http://webtips.dantobias.com/cgi-bin/browser.pl to confirm this user agent is correctly provided by isilo.

Is the problem with the user agent or something else?

Any help appreciated.
