mobile browser detection and redirection

Carlos · Jan 19, 2005

Hi all,

I am currently able to detect the browser capabilities,
and determine if a browser is from a mobile device.
However, I only have been able to place this detection
code in an aspx page. In other words, if I want the detection to take place
in my home page, I do NOT know how to do it. i.e. www.myhome.com. However,
I am able to do it at : www.myhome.com/browserdetection.aspx.
I can mention www.davesipaq.com as example.
Can anyone tell me how to make this happen?.

Thanks,

Carlos.

hey carlos, here is your answer..

im doing it on c#..

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Boolean MobFlag = Request.Browser.IsMobileDevice();
if (MobFlag) Server.Transfer("~/mobile/home.aspx");
else Server.Transfer("~/login.aspx")
}

i think dis serves ur purpose.. if u check for mobile device in another way.. plz let me kno.. im interested to kno.. regards

Browser redirection

Hi,
you can use the following code
but browser should have META REFRESH enable

You can easily detect information of mobile device using
http://51degrees.codeplex.com

This Open source .NET mobile API gives detailed information of the mobile device making the request and also has the facility to redirect user automatically to mobile landing page when request in coming from mobile device.

I have found this very useful and easy to implement in mobile website developments.

Let me know if you face any issues in usage.

Thanks
