Follow up to Francesco R's post from 2016.
His function works for most human traffic; added a few lines to cover the most common bot traffic. Also fixed issue with function failing to detect strings at position 0 due to strpos behavior.
// Function written and tested December, 2018
function get_browser_name($user_agent)
{
// Make case insensitive.
$t = strtolower($user_agent);
// If the string *starts* with the string, strpos returns 0 (i.e., FALSE). Do a ghetto hack and start with a space.
// '[strpos()] may return Boolean FALSE, but may also return a non-Boolean value which evaluates to FALSE.'
// http://php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php
$t = ' ' . $t;
// Humans / Regular Users
if (strpos($t, 'opera' ) || strpos($t, 'opr/') ) return 'Opera' ;
