Server side detection.

Note that the CSS has a few issues on mediaqueries which should be fixed, such as @media only screen and(-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:1.5), only screen and(min--moz-device-pixel-ratio:1.5), only screen and(min-resolution:240dpi){ } The issue comes notably from "and(", it is a parse error in Opera(blink) and in Firefox. It is probably a bug in Firefox but it would be better to fix it as "and (". The mediaqueries are ignored in Opera and Firefox. It is working in Safari. There is also an issue with things like "min--moz" which should be "-moz-min-" Apart of that, PostMedia Web sites including the gazette should send Firefox OS and others to the touch version.

The syntax "and(" really needs to be fixed. This is a bug in Safari that it is accepted, it should not. All other browsers send an error: Chrome, Firefox, Opera and IE. See https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98303#c4 for context.
On we can find http://www.montrealgazette.com/mobile/ <script> if (navigator.userAgent.match(/AppleWebKit/i) && navigator.userAgent.match(/Mobile/i) && !(navigator.userAgent.match(/BlackBerry 9780/i))) { // remove '/mobile' from the start of the path and add '/touch' var path = "/touch" + location.pathname.substr(7, location.pathname.length); document.location = path + location.search; } </script>
This seems fixed now!

The test is failing. "962922": { "url": "http://www.montrealgazette.com/", "steps": [ "function (){return hasViewportMeta() && mobileLinkOrScriptUrl();}" ], "ua": "FirefoxOS", "title": "montrealgazette.com sends desktop content to Firefox OS, Firefox Android and Opera Mobile" }, The site switched to a responsive site. It's not going to Mobile anymore. There is still <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1"> Maybe this script in the markup is a better way of detecting: <script type='text/javascript'> /* <![CDATA[ */ var Postmedia = {"adConfig":{"site":"mg.m","msite":"mg.m","networkId":3081,"keys":{"ck":"index","imp":"index","nk":"print","page":"index","pr":"mg"},"zone":"index"},"Urls":{"home_url":"http:\/\/montrealgazette.com","stylesheet_directory_uri":"http:\/\/s0.wp.com\/wp-content\/themes\/vip\/postmedia-montrealgazette","ajaxurl":"http:\/\/montrealgazette.com\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php"},"Properties":{"domain":"","userAgents":["mozilla","msie","webkit","ipad"],"mobileAgents":["iphone","ipod","android"],"isMobile":true,"isIpad":false,"isModal":false},"Facebook":{"pageId":"273805206181","appId":"262483350536461","mobileId":"mg.m"}}; /* ]]> */ </script>
