Hi guys, I'm looking for a way to modify the HTTP request headers (user agent) Midori sends to Web servers. Like we can on Firefox (eg with this extension, Google Chrome, Lynx and other tools .

I'm brand new on this tight/secured browser with some nice features. Also I found no light on the midori-browser.org eg FAQ. The cool little browser's website shows no support or forum link (at least to me). DDG/GOgole didn't help that time.

Please share if you happen to know that bit of information. If not for Midori, I'd like to know it if you know how to do it on another *light* browser.

It does not look possible. At least not without reprogramming it yourself, I suppose you could do that. The source is available. However, my only suggestion is that you consider using one of the browsers that you mentioned.

Open the Preferences window, then Network->Identify as

FWIW you don't need the extension to modify user-agent string in firefox.
Can do it in about:config

general.useragent.override

@RokDoctor thank you. Though Midori's switcher keeps a "Midori [version]" in the useragent. Dunno if that's what causes spotify to block me while on Midori.

@Rinndalir So the old bug 933959 is over. Thanks for letting me know. About the extension, allows me to activate and shift useragent as a breeze. Much more convenient than going 'About:config', finding the value, opening the useragent list... And I use the list by chrispederick, useragent-switcher's author, so better gives Caesar its due credit.

Ah cool. I'd looked all over and couldn't figure out a way to do this. I love learning new stuff.
