As technology changes and it becomes possible to determine more and more information about our viewers, not only is it NOT wrong to customize interfaces to their environment, but it is a responsible thing to do for your clients for which you might develop. Without making this a personal flame, I would say that I whole-heartedly disagree. Developers that use technology to it's fullest to further improve the online experience for visitors may ultimately be far more successful than those who simply say HTML wasn't designed to do thatAnd in an attempt to make this email something besides a Me Too or Not Me, I have noticed that many browser versions of Explorer for windows have passed screen resolution information in the header. That could also have some effect when using mime info from webcat.Hope this helps Alex -- Alex J.
