Hello,

I load the following page as an Excel add-in in Excel (Office 365 Version 1706) for Windows 7. It shows EXCEL as host, but null as platform. I cleared my browser history before the tests...

It seems that for the same code, it showed PC yesterday...

Shouldn't it be always PC in Excel for Windows?

Thank you

            debug("OfficeHelpers.Utilities.platform: " + OfficeHelpers.Utilities.platform);

            function debug(msg) {
                if (document.getElementById("console") !== null)
                    document.getElementById("console").innerHTML += msg;
            }

Another host detection problem. Could be related to #37 . @Zlatkovsky thoughts?

This bug tracks all the issues with identification of hosts. @Zlatkovsky may be we need to revisit the logic for platform detection.

Closing this as we do not have a consistent repro.
