On emulators, it seems to do the trick, but on my iPhone, my boss's iPhone, his friends Android, it does not work in production.

In staging it works just fine.  Both sites reside on the same server, and are configured the exact same.

:)  that's where I got mine from..  i just added a few extras to it.
then the issue you are having is probably the same as mine. The User Agent string is not passed by the browser that is connecting to the page. You have to check if Request.ServerVariables["User_Agent"] = null
Avatar of kevp75

ASKER

is there another method to get that if it is null?
Nope, if it is null, then the browser isn't passing it. We had issues where our BigIP was hitting the page and caused error after error since it didn't have a user agent. In the end it detected the site as offline and would load the page for any user.

ASKER

is there another method to doing this?   I can't believe that I would simply have to rely on a 3rd party service to do it for me...
There is, but is it no longer supported: http://mdbf.codeplex.com/.
