off-topic, this ? is a browser detection issue

usually u can use look for one of the supplied browser vars with 
javascript or env var with apache lets say, otherwise this has been gone 
over man times
check out

http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/99/02/index2a.html

but remember that in essence look at the http_accept var because if it 
is a wap fone it will have text/vnd.wap.wml somewhere in it.

a) get any of the http vars that a browser supplys http_accept and 
http_user_agent comes to mind
b) check for a string such as "Navigator' Mozilla, etc and redirect to 
correct directory/file for that client
