</module>

It is recommended to use this module as a "fallback", e.g. configure it after nearly all other modules. The only module that should follow is the BrowserWorkarounds module (mostly to fix redirects for broken browsers like firefox)

Dependencies

This module does not depend directly on any other module, but it SHOULD be used in conjunction with the BrowserWorksarounds module to give a smooth ride with different browsers.
