Have you tried: Window.Navigator? its getPlatform() method might prove useful, otherwise getUserAgent()... You'd either use it in your code an generate new permutations with a <define-property> and its associated <property-provider> http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/2.0/com/google/gwt/user/client/Window.Navigator.html#getPlatform() See http://code.google.com/p/doctype/wiki/NavigatorPlatformProperty (make sure you follow the MSDN link too) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
