Thanks Chris
that gruden page is pretty helpful, it's very similar to the approach
i've been taking. except i didn't come across those smart <link
media=...> definitions until i had already done this:
<cfif cgi.http_accept contains "text/vnd.wap.wml" || cgi.http_accept
contains "application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml" ||
structKeyExists(cgi,"HTTP_X_WAP_PROFILE")>
<cfset Variables.isMobile = true />
<cfelseif findNoCase("iphone", cgi.http_user_agent)>
<cfset Variables.isMobile = true />
</cfif>
i'm still happy with that - i'll have to add more options to the
useragent selector, but it means i can make a couple of deft page layout
changes like
<cfif Variables.isMobile><img src="big flash header"><cfelse><img
src="little jpeg header"></cfif>
the hardest thing about the mobile business for an independent
contractor is testing. i've got two OS platforms with three browsers on
each, which pretty much covers the browser options. but i don't own a
smartphone. and some days i feel like i need three.
