Firefox User Agent Switcher...From Christopher Raimond, who manages our CAMS system, concerning a patch for Firefox that allows it to "pretend" it is Internet Explorer. One way to get around CAMS restrictions for browsers on a Mac is to use Firefox with an add-on called "User Agent Switcher". This add-on allows Firefox to report itself to websites as if it was Internet Explorer.
The CAMS website will then allow you to access the site as usual,
I have tested this setup with the latest version of Firefox on a Mac and have had no problems checking the status and acknowledging alarms
You can download and install the User Agent Switcher add-on for Firefox from: You will have to restart Firefox after installing it. Then, in the top menu bar, if you choose Tools, there will now be a "User Agent Switcher" sub-menu. From that sub-menu, you should now have a listing for "Internet Explorer 7 (Windows Vista)" in addition to "Default". You can use Tools --> User Agent Switcher to switch between Firefox reporting itself as Firefox ("Default") or IE 7 running on Windows Vista. Before accessing CAMS select "Internet Explorer 7" from the Tools --> User Agent Switcher menu. Connect to the CAMS website as usual and log in. After logging out, select "Default" from the Tools > User Agent Switcher menu to return to the default setting. |
