If you can do it server side w/ XSSI it's much cleaner (only works with
Apace 1.3-> servers,I think)
If you have questions about XSSI contact me off list.
For JavaScript this is most inclusive sniffer i've found

Subject: [Javascript] browser sniffer for css redirect
Does anybody have a javascript that checks for and redirects stylesheets
and or urls that works with the browsers from 3x to current on NN and
IE? Or could point me to one? I have been searching but haven't found
the golden egg yet :)
Thanks,
Dave
