User-Agent HTTP Header

[Alex C]

Hey guys,

I'm trying to create my first tool using the Digg API, and I noticed
this in the wiki:

"All requests must include a User-Agent HTTP Header"

I saw two examples of how to set one, in PHP and Ruby, but I cannot
figure out how to include a User-Agent HTTP Header in JavaScript. (I
searched around a lot).

If someone could show me a conventional way to define a User-Agent
HTTP Header in JavaScript, that would be great.

Any help would be much appreciated ;)

Your browser will handle this for you, transparently, if that's how
you're using Javascript. E.g., the user agent would be "MSIE" or
"Mozilla", depending on what browser you're using.
