I'm working on a project involving a site (my own) that is going to hold / display albums / lots of pictures. I'm working on having it auto-detect the platform that the viewer is on, and send them to either the normal site or a "mobile" site.

So, I have a site setup to echo the browser type (using $ _ SERVER [ ' HTTP_USER_AGENT ' ] (spaced so it will show in the post). If ya'll could post what system you are using (mainly platform, OS, and browser) as well as what it echoes as the result, it would be very useful.

I'm also researching this for a good list in the mean time, but part of the point of this is to completely do everything on my site hand done (with exception of the galleries; they will be generated by Adobe Lightroom 2).

Here is the link to the page on my site.

Thanks ahead of time for anyone's help. 🙂

EDIT: Oh, and I promise that this site isn't recording information or anything like that. I just thought I would mention that. I can provide the script being used if anyone wishes.

Here's all my different OS's and browsers I have.
I would be interested in what you are doing as I have a couple of sites that I would like to do a mobile for also. Currently I have one that I basically re-did it to be formatted for mobile and use a different URL. i.e. mobile.####.com An automagically redirect would be 😎

This essentially stems from the issue of me having family members on dial-up. But also having mobile versions will be useful as well. I'm basically going to be doing string search from the element used to display the information. If the string detects "mobile" properties, it redirects to m.42photos.com, and if "desktop" properties are detected, then the desktop version, 42photos.com is displayed. I'm not sure about what to have as a default (else in the if statements), but I will have a selection option somewhere so that the modes or versions can be changed. When I build the code, I'll post it on here, as I would like to test it on here if no one minds. I'm going to be moving over the pictures from TeAm AnandTech Blog to this format as well, so it does apply. 🙂
