I can't find a way to select a user agent in KDE 2.2.2. (Except for the site-by-site list in Preferences, of course.) Is this an enhancement in KDE 3.0?
Menu item 'Tools>Change Browser Identification' should be there in 2.2. It will bring up a list of browser id's from which to select.
My Tools menu has only:
Run Command Open Terminal Find File
You have to have an actual web url in the location string gadget ("localhost" works if apache is running) then the options in the tool menu change.
I assume that the "location string gadget" is the place under the menu bar where you enter a location, right? I tried entering various URLs there and none of them caused "Change Browser Id" to appear under "Tools".
You can also add a button to your toolbar Settings -> Configure Toolbars The one that looks like a hat "Change Browser Identification"
"Configure Toolbars" doesn't have "Change Browser Identification". "Bookmarks" is followed by "Configure Key Bindings".
And 'Help" confirms that I'm running V2.2.2.
Very mysterious.

Paul, I first noticed this same problem after updating to the new KDE2 as well. Suddenly the "Change Browser ID" menu selection was gone! I did as you and searched hi & lo to get it back, but I just came to the conclusion that one of the developers failed to put it in when they did their compile. I thought that maybe because the preferences part worked so well, that maybe they saw no need for it in the menu! It never really seemed to work well when I tried usng it from there anyway! I know this question had come up another time and at the time I didn't know as I was getting accustomed to the new SuSE 8 & KDE3, but it's back! Konq now has the menu selection, under Tools to change the browser ID! Another good reason to move to 8 or at the least, KDE3?
